<h3>What is the oxidation number of oxygen in H2O?</h3>

Oxygen almost always has an oxidation number of -2, except in peroxides (H 2 O 2) where it is -1 and in compounds with fluorine (OF 2) where it is +2. Hydrogen has an oxidation number of +1 when combined with non-metals, but it has an oxidation number of -1 when combined with metals.

Use the provided reduction potentials to calculate ArGº for the following balanced redox reaction: Pb2+(aq) + Cu(s) → Pb(s) + Cu

nydimaria [60]

Answer : The correct option is, +91 kJ/mole

Solution :

The balanced cell reaction will be,

$Cu(s)+Pb^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq)+Pb(s)$

Here copper (Cu) undergoes oxidation by loss of electrons, thus act as anode. Lead (Pb) undergoes reduction by gain of electrons and thus act as cathode.

First we have to calculate the standard electrode potential of the cell.

$E^0_{[Pb^{2+}/Pb]}=-0.13V$

$E^0_{[Cu^{2+}/Cu]}=+0.34V$

$E^0_{cell}=E^0_{cathode}-E^0_{anode}$

$E^0_{cell}=E^0_{[Pb^{2+}/Pb]}-E^0_{[Cu^{2+}/Cu]}$

$E^0_{cell}=-0.13V-(0.34V)=-0.47V$

Now we have to calculate the standard Gibbs free energy.

Formula used :

$\Delta G^o=-nFE^o_{cell}$

where,

$\Delta G^o$ = standard Gibbs free energy = ?

n = number of electrons = 2

F = Faraday constant = 96500 C/mole

$E^o$ = standard e.m.f of cell = -0.47 V

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the Gibbs free energy.

$\Delta G^o=-(2\times 96500\times (-0.47))=+90710J/mole=+90.71kJ/mole\approx +91kJ/mole$

Therefore, the standard Gibbs free energy is +91 kJ/mole

The empirical formula of metal iodide : CoI₃(Cobalt(III) Iodide)

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

13.02 g sample of Cobalt , then mol Co(MW=58.933 g/mol) :

$\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{Ar}=\\\\mol=\dfrac{13.02~g}{58.933}\\\\mol=0.221$

Mass of metal iodide formed : 97.12 g, so mass of Iodine :

$\tt =mass~metal~iodide-mass~Cobalt\\\\=97.12-13.02\\\\=84.1~g$

Then mol iodine (MW=126.9045 g/mol) :

$\tt \dfrac{84.1}{126.9045}=0.663$

mol ratio of Cobalt and Iodine in the compound :

$\tt 0.221\div 0.663=1\div 3$

Which shows an isomer of the molecule below?

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the isomer of an organic compound is another organic compound having the same molecular formula but different structural formula, thus, the given compound's molecular formula is C₅H₈ since it is an alkyne due to the triple bond. Next, we analyze each option:

A. C₅H₁₂

B. C₅H₁₀

C. C₅H₁₀

D. C₅H₈

For that reason answer is D. based on the molecular formula as well as due to the presence of the triple bond unsaturation (alkyne as well).

Best regards.
