I need help solving this chemistry problem.

A voltaic cell using Pb²⁺/Pb and Ni²⁺/Ni half-cells is set up at standard conditions, and each compartment has a volume of 355 mL. What is the cell potential, in V, after it has delivered 0.150 A for 31.0 hours at 25°C? (E° for Pb²⁺/Pb = -0.130 V and E° for Ni²⁺/Ni = -0.250 V.)

Hi, JRS Shouldn't the concentration of Pb reacted be subtracted from the initial concentrations of 1 M to get the final concentration and the final concentration of Ni be incremented by the Ni concentration reacted?
