Work and Cell Potential Relationship
What is the relationship between work and cell potential? What is the equation?

Re: Work and Cell Potential Relationship
since the work is work max, and work max is = to
, which is = to nFE(cell), then work max= nFE(cell)

Re: Work and Cell Potential Relationship
The equation modeling the relationship between work and cell potential is ∆G = - nFE˚cell, where n is the number of moles transferred, F is faraday constant, and E is the work/charge of the cell measured in volts.

Re: Work and Cell Potential Relationship
The equation that represents the relationship between work and cell potential is: wMAX = - n F E. wMAX is the work done, which is also equal to ∆G, the change in Gibbs free energy.
