Answer: The net ionic equation for the cobalt-silver voltaic cell is Co(s)+3Ag^+(aq.)\rightarrow Co^{3+}(aq.)+3Ag(s)

Explanation: In cobalt-silver voltaic cell, one half of the cell consists of cobalt electrode immersed in Co(NO_3)_3 solution ( which means that Co^{3+} are present in the solution) and other half of the cell consists of the Ag electrode immersed in AgNO_3 solution ( which means that Ag^+ is present in the solution)

The two electrodes are joined by the copper wire. The cobalt electrode acts as an anode and the silver electrode acts a  cathode.

At anode, oxidation reaction takes place and at cathode, reduction reaction takes place.

At Anode :                    Co(s)\rightarrow Co^{3+}(aq.)+3e^-

At Cathode:                   [Ag^+(aq.)+e^-\rightarrow Ag(s)]\times 3

Net ionic equation:   Co(s)+3Ag^+(aq.)\rightarrow Co^{3+}(aq.)+3Ag(s)

Given 50.0 grams of Strontium, find grams of Phosphorus required for complete reaction
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

                     Mass = 11.78 g of P₄

Explanation:

                     The balance chemical equation is as follow:

                                          6 Sr + P4 → 2 Sr₃P₂

Step 1: Calculate moles of Sr as;

Moles = Mass / M/Mass

Moles = 50.0 g / 87.62 g/mol

Moles = 0.570 moles

Step 2: Find moles of P₄ as;

According to equation,

6 moles of Sr reacted with  =  1 mole of P₄

So,

0.570 moles of Sr will react with  =  X moles of P₄

Solving for X,

X = 1 mol × 0.570 mol / 6 mol

X = 0.0952 mol of P₄

Step 3: Calculate mass of P₄ as,

Mass = Moles × M.Mass

Mass = 0.0952 mol × 123.89 g/mol

Mass = 11.78 g of P₄

When heated, lithium reacts with nitrogen to form lithium nitride: 6Li(s) + N2(g) → 2Li3N(s) What is the theoretical yield of Li
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The % yield of the reaction = 27.5 %

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of Li = 12.7 grams

Mass of N2 = 34.7 grams

Actual yield of Li3N = 5.85 grams

Molar mass of  Lithium = 6.94 g/mol

Molar mass of N2 = 28 g/mol

Molar mass of LI3N = 34.83 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation:

6Li(s) + N2(g) → 2Li3N(s)

Step 3: Calculate moles of Lithium

Moles Li = mass Li / Molar mass Li

Moles Li = 12.7 grams / 6.94 g/mol

Moles Li = 1.83 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles of N2

Moles N2 = 34.7 g/ 28 g/mol

Moles N2 = 1.24 moles

Step 5: Limiting reactant

For 6 moles Li consumed, we need 1 mole of N2 to produce 2 moles of Li3N

Lithium is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed (1.83 moles).

N2 is in excess. There will be consumed 1.83 / 6 = 0.305 moles

There will remain 1.24 - 0.305 = 0.935 moles

Step 6: Calculate moles of Li3N

For 6 moles Li consumed, we need 1 mole of N2 to produce 2 moles of Li3N

For 1.83 moles Li, we'll have 1.83/3 = 0.61 moles of Li3N

Step 7: Calculate mass of Li3N

Mass Li3N =moles LI3N * Molar Mass LI3N

Mass Li3N = 0.610 moles * 34.83 g/mol

Mass Li3N = 21.2463 grams = Theoretical yield

Step 8: Calculate % yield

% yield = actual yield / theoretical yield

% yield = (5.85 / 21.2463)*100% = 27.5%

The % yield of the reaction = 27.5 %
