A Zn-Cu battery is constructed as follows at 25oC
Zn(s) | Zn+2(aq) (0.20 M) || Cu+2(aq) (2.5 M) | Cu(s)
The mass of each electrode is 200.0 gram and the volume of the electrolytes is 1.0 L
a) calculate the cell potential of the cell
b) calculate the mass of each electrode after 10.0 amp. of current has flowed for 10.0 hour Remember, the anode loses mass because of the oxidation reaction while the cathode gains mass due to the reduction process.
c) how long can this battery deliver a current of 10.0 amp before it goes dead?
