Answer the following in brief.

Construct a galvanic cell from the electrodes Co³⁺ | Co and Mn²⁺/Mn. \[\ce{E{^{\circ}_{Co}}}\] = 1.82 V, \[\ce{E{^{\circ}_{Mn}}}\] = –1.18 V. Calculate \[\ce{E{^{\circ}_{cell}}}\]

Answer the following:

Calculate emf of the cell:

Zn_(s) |Zn²⁺ (0.2 M)||H⁺ (1.6 M)| H₂(g, 1.8 atm)| Pt at 25 °C.

Calculate emf of the cell at 25°C.
