Electrode potential for saturated silver carbonate solution

An electrochemical cell is set up to measure the electrode potential $E(\ce{Ag^+}/\ce{Ag})$ using the saturated $\ce{Ag2CO3(aq)}$ solution $(K_\mathrm{sp}(\ce{Ag2CO3(aq)},\pu{25 °C}) = \pu{6.3E-12})$ ...

Why isn't the chemistry of a zinc-air battery (meaningfully) hindered by an activation energy barrier?

Virtually every source I've read pertaining to zinc-air batteries explain the chemistry of it either using these formulae or a simplified version of them: $$ \begin{align} &\text{Anode:} &\...
