Homework Statement


The E° value of one cell reaction is positive and that of another cell reaction is negative. Which cell reaction will proceed toward the formation of more products at equilibrium?
*Problem 19.20, Chemistry: Chang, Raymond. 10th ed.

Homework Equations


E° cell = E° cathode - E° anode

I have an exam on Friday and I can't really see how which one would form more products in equilibrium, and that worries me. Please help. :(
