The given statement, some type of path is necessary to join both half-cells in order for electron flow to occur, is true.

Explanation:

Flow of electrons is possible with the help of a conducting medium like metal wire.

A laboratory device which helps in completion of oxidation and reduction-half reactions of a galvanic or voltaic cell is known as salt bridge. Basically, this salt bridge helps in the flow of electrons from anode to cathode and vice-versa.

If salt bridge is not present in an electrochemical cell, the electron neutrality will not be maintained and hence, flow of electrons will not take place.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement some type of path is necessary to join both half-cells in order for electron flow to occur, is true.

Convert mass to moles for both reactants. (Round to 2 significant figures.)

shepuryov [24]

Mass = mr x moles
Mr of CuCl2 = ( 63.5) + ( 35.5 x 2) = 134.5
2.5 = 134.5 x moles
2.5 / 134.5 = moles
Moles = 0.019 (2DP)

0.25g of Al
Mr of Al = 27
0.25 = 27 x moles
0.25/ 27 = 0.0093 moles (2sf)

Hope this helps :)

If the following weights have masses of 2, 4, 6 and 8 kg,

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

8 kg mass

Explanation:

As we can see in the image the weight of mass 8 kgs has a large surface area as compared to the surface area of other masses. In general, it has been observed that a wide surface area has more surface particle for heat conduction. Hence, the rate of heat transfer is directly proportional to the surface area of heat conducting surface. Thus, the larger the surface area, the faster is the rate of heat conduction.

Hence, weight of mass 8Kg wil transfer heat a fast rate.

The pH of lemon juice is 2, and the pH of orange juice is 4. Which of these is more acidic, and by how much? What does this mean

katovenus [111]

Explanation:

The pH is a 1 to 14 scale that measures how acidic or basic is a solution, at lowest number the solution will be acid, in 7 the solution will be neutral, and in higher values will be basic. It is a logarithmic scale, so with each number you move, the acidity or basicity will be increased by a factor of 10. So, lemon juice is more acidic than orange juice by a factor of 100.
