When a bond is broken that should be a type of reaction. When bonds are broken sometimes heat is released.
Absorption occurs when photons from incident light hit atoms and molecules and cause them to vibrate. The more an object's molecules move and vibrate, the hotter it becomes. This heat is then emitted from the object as thermal energy.
Answer:
a. 1.23 V
b. No maximum
Explanation:
Required:
a. Is there a minimum standard reduction potential that the half-reaction used at the cathode of this cell can have?
b. Is there a maximum standard reduction potential that the half-reaction used at the cathode of this cell can have?
The standard cell potential (E°cell) is the difference between the standard reduction potential of the cathode and the standard reduction potential of the anode.
E°cell = E°red, cat - E°red, an
If E°cell must be at least 1.10 V (E°cell > 1.10 V),
E°red, cat - E°red, an > 1.10 V
E°red, cat - 0.13V > 1.10 V
E°red, cat > 1.23 V
The minimum standard reduction potential is 1.23 V while there is no maximum standard reduction potential.
