When conditions change, use equilibrium shift or the Nernst relationship to explain why electrode potential or E°cell no longer matches the Data Booklet value.

How this is tested

  • Explain how dilution or concentration changes shift half-cell equilibria and E values.
  • Use Nernst-style equations to calculate electrode potentials from ion concentrations.
  • State how current flow changes emf, electrode mass and ion concentrations over time.
