Suppose you build a galvanic cell using silver and chromium electrodes. a) Determine which electrode is the cathode and which is the anode under standard conditions (explain how you know). b) Write the half-reactions and the balanced complete reaction under standard conditions. c) Calculate the standard cell potential for your galvanic cell (walk through your work). d) Now suppose you have 0.100 M silver ions in the silver half-cell and 0.250 M chromium ions in the chromium half- cell. Calculate the cell potential under these conditions. Compare the answers for (c) and (d), and explain how the difference you see makes sense in terms of equilibrium.
