APFIVE Galvanic Cell Potential and Concentration
A galvanic cell is constructed using Ag⁺/Ag and Ni²⁺/Ni half-cells. Given the standard reduction potentials $$E^{0} ext{(Ag}^+/ ext{Ag)} = +0.80 ext{ V}$$ and $$E^{0} ext{(Ni}^{2+}/ ext{Ni)} = -0.25 ext{ V}$$, which of the following modifications would result in the largest increase in the cell potential?
A
Increasing [Ni²⁺] by a factor of 100
B
Increasing the surface area of the Ni electrode
C
Increasing [Ag⁺] by a factor of 100
D
Decreasing [Ag⁺] by a factor of 100
