VK= RT/ZF * log [I+]out/[I+]in


According to this equation, the equilibrium potential for potassium (VK) is equal to the product of the gas constant (R) and the temperature in degrees Kelvin (T) divided by the product of the valence of potassium (Z) and the Faraday constant (F) multiplied by the natural log of the quotient derived from the external and internal concentrations of potassium. Thus,

Can the Nernst equation be used at temperatures other than room temperature?

Yes. Why? The Nernst equation to calculate the Ecell for non standard conditions is as follows:Ecell = E°cell - (RT/nF ) lnQso T can be any temperature in KelvinThe other version of the Nernst equation is for standard conditions:Ecell = E°cell - (0.0592/n) logQThis applies only at room temperature. When at 25°C, (RT/F )becomes a constant of 0.0592. So if you are determining the Ecell at room temp use the second equation, for any other condition use the first equation.Cheers!

Can you solve for a variable in an equation?

Sure. You can always 'solve for' a variable, and if it happens to be the only variable in the equation, than that's how you solve the equation.
