Can someone check my answer for this chem question?

Using the slope of the Nernst regression line, use the formula 2.303RT/nF to solve for the Faraday constant.


The overall balanced reaction is Zn(s)+Cu2+(aq)--> Zn2+(aq)+Cu (s)

The slope is 0.0206

The temperature is 294.15 k

N= 2


For F, I got 136,710 c/mol


The accepted number is 96,485 c/mol so the percent error would be 42%.


Does the answer I got seem correct?

I got the same answer as you. Was the slope obtained in an experiment?
