How does the Nernst equation relate the cell potential of an electrochemical cell to the concentrations of reactants and products involved in the redox reaction?

When looking at the equation, the ln Q part is where the concentrations come into play. Q is essential the concentration of the products over the reactants to the power of their coefficents

The Nernst equation allows us to determine the cell potential of an electrochemical cell under non-standard conditions, taking into account the concentrations of reactants and products involved in the redox reaction.
