Solution
Verified by Toppr

In the above electrolytic cell we have,
Ecell = 0.0591 log(oxi)(red)

Ecell = 0.0591 log0.051

Ecell= 0.13599 V

ΔG= nFEcell
ΔG is negative

The concentration of potassium ions inside a biological cell is at least twenty times higher than the outside. The resulting potential difference across the cell is important in several processes such as transmission of nerve impulses and maintaining the ion balance. A simple model for such a concentration cell involving a metal M is:
M(s)|M+ (aq;0.05 molar)||M+ (aq;1 molar)|M(s)
For the above electrolytic cell the magnitude of the cell potential |Ecell|=70 mV.
