A Galvanic (spontaneous) cell is to be constructed using two half-cells that incorporate aluminium electrodes. The solution in the first half-cell is 0.115 M Al(NO3)3 while in the second, it is 3.890 M AI(NO3)3. The Standard Cell Potential, E, is -1.66 V. Q 1(a) Use the Nernst equation to determine the potential for each half cell. [12 Marks] Use the Nernst equation to determine the potential for each half cell. Draw a labelled diagram of the cell and give the standard cell notation. Q 1(d) Determine the free energy change, AG, for the reaction. Comment on the value obtained
