In the button cells widely used in watches and other devices the following reaction takes place:
`Zn(s) + Ag_(2)O(s) + H_(2)O (l) to Zn^(2+) (aq) + 2Ag(s) + 2OH^(-)(aq)`
Determine `DeltaG^(@)` and `E^(@)` for the reaction
`Zn(s) to Zn^(2+) + 2e^(-) , E^(@) = 0.76` V
`Ag_(2)O + H_(2)O + 2e^(-) to 2Ag + 2OH^(-)`
`E^(@) = +0.34` V
