Question

I have solved this equation and seen solutions to it. However, I keep seeing Pb2+ squared in the Nernst Equation (for Q) for the calcuation of the second part of this question. I do not understand why Pb2+ is squared. Can you explain that to me? Thank you.

A galvanic cell is constructed in which the overall reac-
tion is
Pb(s) + 2 H;O* (aq) → Pb²+ (aq) + H2 (g) + 2 H20(e)
(a) Calculate AE° for this cell.
(b) Chloride ions are added until PbCl, precipitates at the
anode and [CI-] reaches 0.15 M. The cell potential is
then measured to be 0.22 V at pH = 0 and PH,
1.0 atm. Calculate [Pb2+] under these conditions.
(c) Calculate the solubility product constant Kp of PbCl2.
