उत्तर

1) For any general reaction, aA + bB → cC + dD

Nernst equation is given by

`"E"_"cell" = "E"_"cell"^circ - "RT"/"nF"  "ln" (["C"]^"c" ["D"]^"d")/(["A"]^"a" ["B"]^"b")` OR

`"E"_"cell" = "E"_"cell"^circ - (2.303 "RT")/"nF"  log_10  (["C"]^"c" ["D"]^"d")/(["A"]^"a" ["B"]^"b")`

where n = moles of electrons used in the reaction, F = Faraday = 96500 C,
T = temperature in kelvin,
R = gas constant = 8.314 J K-1 mol-1

2) The second term in the Nernst equation is the correction for nonstandard state conditions.

Correction factor is `(2.303 "RT")/"nF" log_10  (["C"]^"c" ["D"]^"d")/(["A"]^"a" ["B"]^"b")`
