4. Write the overall balanced equation for the spontaneous process occurring in the following cell. (Hint: this is the combination of two half-reactions. One is a reduction half-reaction, and the other is an oxidation half-reaction.) Then, calculate the standard potential, E°, for the cell. Zn (s) | Zn *2 (aq) || Cu *2 (aq) | Cu (s)
