Salt bridge A concentration cell similar to the one shown is composed of two Ag electrodes and solutions of different Ag+ concentrations. The left compartment contains 1.10 M Ag+, and the right compartment contains 0.268 M Ag+. Calculate the cell potential for this reaction at 298 K. In this silver concentration cell, the reaction would proceed spontaneously to transfer Ag+ from the left to the right compartment from the right to the left compartment
