Answer: Redox Reaction
Explanation:
Redox reaction is the key chemical events in an oxidation-reduction also called Redox. It is the net movement of electrons from one reactants to another
Answer:
The correct answer is 169.56 g/mol.
Explanation:
Based on the given information, the mass of Ag deposited is 1.24 g, and the mass of unknown metal X deposited in another cell is 0.650 g. The number of moles of electrons can be determined as,
= 1.24 g Ag * 1mol Ag/107.87 g/mol Ag * 1 mol electron/1 mol Ag ( the molecular mass of Ag is 107.87 g/mol)
= 0.0115 mole of electron
The half cell reaction for the metal X is,
X^3+ (aq) + 3e- = X (s)
From the reaction, it came out that 3 faraday will reduce one mole of X^3+.
The molar mass of X will be,
= 0.650 g/0.0115 *3 mol electron/1 mol
= 56.52 * 3
= 169.56 g/mol
ΔG⁰ = ΔH⁰ - T ΔS⁰
ΔG⁰ : Standard free energy of formation of acetylene
ΔH⁰ : Standard enthalpy of formation (226.7 kJ/mol)
ΔS⁰ : Standard entropy change (58.8 J / K. mol)
T : Temperature 25°C = 298 K (room temperature)
ΔG⁰ = 226.7 - (298 x 58.8 x 10⁻³) = 209.2 kJ /mol
