galvanic cell is constructed from a silver half-cell and a copper half-cell. The copper half-cell contains 0.10M Cu(NO3)2 and the concentration of silver ions in the other half-cell is unknown. If the silver electrode is the cathode and the cell emf is measured and found to be 0.10 v at 25oC, what is the Ag+ ion concentration?
