Question:

Refer to the discussion of the Leclanché cell.

(a) Combine the several equations written for the operation of the Leclanché cell into a single overall equation.

(b) Given that the voltage of the Leclanché cell is 1.55 V, estimate the electrode potentials, E, for each of the half cell reactions. Why are your values only estimates?
