Imagine an electrochemical cell that is composed of an Ag/Ag+ half-cell and a Fe2+/Fe3+ half-cell. What is the electrochemical potential of this cell? What will happen to the generated potential if Fe2+ ions are precipitated out as a solid (due to the addition of ions capable of forming an insoluble solid precipitate with the ions)? What will happen to the generated potential if Fe3+ ions are precipitated out as a solid (due to the addition of ions capable of forming an insoluble solid precipitate with the ions)? Assume standard reduction potentials and Molar concentrations of 0.1 M for all ions/species. Show all work.
