Answer:I think you should write who is anod and cathod. I gave equation below. With the help of it you can calculate.
Explanation:EMF=E°red(cathod) - E°red(anod).

E°cell = 0.59 v
•
Cu²⁺ + 2e- ------> Cu E° = 0.34v
Ni²⁺ +2e- --------> Ni E° = -0.25v
•It is clear that Cu²⁺ will get reduce
& Ni²⁺ will get oxidize
•Now , cell reaction will be
Cu²⁺ + 2e- ------> Cu
Ni -----------> Ni²⁺ +2e-
•Cu²⁺ + Ni --------> Cu + Ni²⁺
•E°cell = E°c -E°a ( when reduction
potential is considered )
•E°cell = 0.34 -(-0.25)
•E°cell = 0.59 v
