Question:

The voltaic cell in Exercise 18.63 produced a voltage of 0.010 V in an unknown test solution. What is the concentration of lead ions in the unknown solution?

Exercise 18.63

A voltaic cell consists of a lead electrode and a reference electrode with a constant potential. This cell has a voltage of 53 mV when the lead electrode is placed in a 0.100 M Pb(NO3)2 solution (the lead electrode is positive). What voltage is measured when the lead electrode is placed in a saturated lead chloride solution, in which [Pb2+] is 1.6 × 10-2 M?
