An electrochemical cell is based on the following two half-reactions:
oxidation: Sn(s) -> Sn^(2+)(aq, 1.70M) + 2e^(-)
reduction: Ag^(+)(aq, 0.170M) + e^(-) -> Ag(s)
Part A

You have calculated the standard cell potential. Use the Nernst equation to calculate the cell potential under the conditions given above:
E_(cell) = E_(cell)° - (0.0592)/(n)logQ
where E_(cell) is the cell potential in volts, E_(cell)° is the standard cell potential in volts, n is the number of moles of electrons transferred in the redox reaction, and Q is the reaction quotient.
