Question
The cell potential for $\mathrm{Zn}\left|\mathrm{Zn}^{2+}(\mathrm{aq})\right|\left|\mathrm{Sn}^{x+}\right| \mathrm{Sn}$ is $0.801 \mathrm{~V}$ at $298 \mathrm{~K}$. The reaction quotient for the above reaction is $10^{-2}$. The number of electrons involved in the given electrochemical cell reaction is ____________.
$\left(\right.$ Given $: \mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{Zn}^{2+} \mid \mathrm{Zn}}^{\mathrm{o}}=-0.763 \mathrm{~V}, \mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{Sn}^{x+} \mid \mathrm{Sn}}^{\mathrm{o}}=+0.008 \mathrm{~V}$ and $\left.\frac{2.303 \mathrm{RT}}{\mathrm{F}}=0.06 \mathrm{~V}\right)$
