Answer:
ok 3 = 9 15 i got 15 so what
Explanation:
Explanation:
Ions form when atoms gain or lose electrons. This is so that they form a full outer shell of electrons. When an atom gains electrons it becomes a negative ion, because electrons are negatively charged. For example, all halogens (group 7 or 17) form negative ions as they gain an electron forming a 1- charge. When an atom loses electrons it becomes a positive ion, as it is losing some negative charge from the electrons. This would be for example, alkali metals (group 1) which lose an electron to form a positive ion with a 1+ charge, (ALL metals form positive ions).
Answer:
0.3793 M
Explanation:
The unknown metal is zinc. So the equation of the reaction is;
Zn(s) + Cu^2+(aq) -------> Zn^2+(aq) + Cu(s)
From Nernst equation;
E = E° - 0.0592/n log Q
[Cu2+] = 0.050179 M
n = 2
[Zn^2+] = ?
E = 1.074 V
E° = 0.34 - (-0.76) = 1.1 V
Substituting values;
1.074 = 1.1 - 0.0592/2 log [Zn^2+]/0.050179
1.074 - 1.1 = - 0.0592/2 log [Zn^2+]/0.050179
-0.026 = -0.0296 log [Zn^2+]/0.050179
-0.026/-0.0296 = log [Zn^2+]/0.050179
0.8784 =log [Zn^2+]/0.050179
Antilog(0.8784) = [Zn^2+]/0.050179
7.558 = [Zn^2+]/0.050179
[Zn^2+] = 7.558 * 0.050179
[Zn^2+] = 0.3793 M
