What is the initial cell potential? and units

What is the cell potential when the concentration of Ni2+Ni2+ has fallen to 0.600 molL−1molL−1?  and units

What are the concentrations of Ni2+Ni2+ and Zn2+Zn2+ when the cell potential falls to 0.46 VV?    and units

A voltaic cell consists of a Zn/Zn²+ half-cell and a
Ni/Ni?+ half-cell at 25 ° C. The initial
concentrations of Ni2+ and Zn²+ are 1.30
mol L- and 0.110 mol L-, respectively.
Zn2+ (aq) + 2 e → Zn(s)
Ni?+ (aq) + 2 e → Ni(s)
E° = -0.76 V
E°
-0.23 V
