Explanation / Answer

1) the standard electrode potential difference (E°) of the Daniell cell (at 25 °C) if pressure is 500 MPa wil be same as at atomsperic pressure because E0 does not depend on pressure.

E0 = Ered (Cu2+IICu) - Ered(Zn2+IIZn)

where

Ered (Cu2+IICu) = + 0.339 V

and

Ered(Zn2+IIZn) = - 0.760 V

therefore

E0 = + 0.339 V - ( 0.760 V )

= + 0.339 V + 0.760 V

= 1.099 V
