Indicate what happens to the concentration of Pb2+ in each half cell
1 answer:
Answer:
Your questions requires diagrams of the cell to get which one is on the left or right. However, see the attached file below
The correct answer is (d) the left half-cell will decrease in concentration; and the right half-cell will increase in concentration.
Explanation:
The concentration of the Pb2+ increases in the oxidation half cell while the concentration of the Pb2+ decreases in the reduction half cell during the reaction.
In the Left Beaker (Left half cell), their is less concentration
Pb(s) ---> Pb2+(aq) + 2 e- Concentration of Pb2+(aq) increase ; Electrons going out from this side
In the Right Beaker (right half cell), their is more concentration
Pb2+(aq) + 2 e- ---> Pb(s) Concentration of Pb2+(aq) decrease ; Electrons coming in to this side
Electrons will flow from Left to Right direction.

Explanation:
<u>1. Convert Molecules to Moles</u>
First, we must convert molecules to moles using Avogadro's Number: 6.022*10²³. This tells us the number of particles in 1 mole of a substance. In this case, the particles are molecules of sodium hydroxide.
Multiply by the given number of molecules.
Flip the fraction so the molecules cancel out.
<u>2. Convert Moles to Grams</u>
Next, we convert moles to grams using the molar mass.
We must calculate the molar mass using the values on the Periodic Table. Look up each individual element.
- Na: 22.9897693 g/mol
- O: 15.999 g/mol
- H: 1.008 g/mol
Since the formula has no subscripts, we can simply add the molar masses.
- NaOH: 22.9897693+15.999+1.008=39.9967693 g/mol
Use this as a ratio.
Multiply by the number of moles we calculated.
The moles of sodium hydroxide cancel.
The original measurement of molecules has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the thousandth place. The 0 tells us to leave the 7 in the hundredth place.
1.20*10²² molecules of sodium hydroxide is approximately 0.797 grams.
