3) Ecell = E°cell - 0.059/n log([product /[reactant])
As the reaction proceed, concentration of products increases and that of reactant decreases thus value of log increases. Hence, Ecell become less and less. But it can't turn negative because reaction has to be spontaneous which is only possible when Ecell is positive.

PARTIL Creating and Testing Voltaic Cells Introduction and Background for the Voltaic Cells A galvanic cell (sometimes more appropriately called a voltaic cell) consists of two half-cells joined by a salt bridge that allow ions to pass between the two sides in order to maintain electroneutrality. Each half-cell contains the Components of...
