What are the correct half reactions for the following reaction: Zn + 2 HCI -> H₂ +zncl2

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ipatiy [6.2K]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Zn(s) + 2H+(aq) => Zn²+(aq) + H2 (g)

Explanation:

The equation Zn + 2 HCI -> H₂ +zncl2 on reduction and oxidation, it results as below;

  • 2H+ + 2e- => H2 ; reduction
  • Zn => Zn²+ + 2e- ; oxidation

The equations above are half cell.

On combination of the above half cell reaction equations gives;

Zn(s) + 2H+(aq) => Zn²+(aq) + H2 (g).

Therefore, the half reaction equation for Zn + 2 HCI -> H₂ +zncl2 is given by;

Zn(s) + 2H+(aq) => Zn²+(aq) + H2 (g).

How many grams are there in 3.4 x 10^24 atoms of He?
Lelechka [254]

Given :

Number of He atoms, n = 3.4\times 10^{24} atoms.

To Find :

How many grams are their in given number of He atoms.

Solution :

We know, molecular mass of He is 4 g. It means that their are 6.022 \times 10^{23} atoms in 4 g of He.

Let, number of gram He in 3.4\times 10^{24} atoms is x , so :

x = \dfrac{3.4\times 10^{24}}{6.022\times 10^{23}}\times 4\\\\x =  $$22.58\ g

Therefore, grams of He atoms is 22.58 g .

Which is the best term to use when describing the energy of position?
Minchanka [31]
Answer: potential.

Chemical energy is the energy provided by a chemical reaction.

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the speed.

Potential energy is the energy due to the position. For example, an object on the top of a mountain, has the possibility to perform work if it falls.

Electromagnetic energy. is propagated by waves: radio waves, infrared radiation, microwaves, etc.

Why are ions charged particles?
Deffense [45]

Answer:

An ion is a charged atom or molecule. It is charged because the number of electrons do not equal the number of protons in the atom or molecule. An atom can acquire a positive charge or a negative charge depending on whether the number of electrons in an atom is greater or less then the number of protons in the atom.

Which of the following affects cell potential?
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

the standard cell potential value

Explanation:

For every cell, we can calculate its standard electrode potential from the table of standard electrode potentials listed in many textbooks.

However, from Nernst's equation;

Ecell= E°cell - 0.0592/n log Q

Hence the standard cell potential (E°cell) affects the value of the calculated cell potential Ecell from Nernst's equation as stated above.
