The electrodes in the following electrochemical cell are connected to a voltmeter as shown. The half-cell on the right contains a standard silver-silver chloride electrode (a silver wire coated with AgCl(s), as in questions 5 and 6). AgCl (s) + e- → Ag(s) + Cl- (1 M) E° = 0.2223 V The half-cell on the left contains a silver electrode immersed in 100.0 mL of 1.00 x 10-3 M AgNO3(aq). A porous plug through which ions can migrate separates the half-cells. What is the voltmeter reading after 10.00 mL of 0.0100 M K2CrO4 has been added to the half-cell on the left and the mixture has been thoroughly stirred? Hint: Ksp of Ag2CrO4 = 1.1 x 10-12

Question

The electrodes in the following electrochemical cell are connected to a voltmeter as shown. The half-cell on the right contains a standard silver-silver chloride electrode (a silver wire coated with AgCl(s), as in questions 5 and 6).  AgCl (s) + e- → Ag(s) + Cl(1 M)            E° = 0.2223 V

The half-cell on the left contains a silver electrode immersed in 100.0 mL of 1.00 x 10-3 M AgNO3(aq). A porous plug through which ions can migrate separates the half-cells. 

What is the voltmeter reading after 10.00 mL of 0.0100 M K2CrO4 has been added to the half-cell on the left and the mixture has been thoroughly stirred? 

Hint: Ksp of Ag2CrO4 = 1.1 x 10-12
