<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is 3Ag^+(aq.)+Cr(s)\rightarrow 3Ag(s)+Cr^{3+}(aq.);E^o_{cell}=+1.53V

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Cr^{3+}(aq.)+3e^-\rightarrow Cr(s);E^o=-0.73V\\\\Ag^+(aq.)+e^-\rightarrow Ag(s);E^o=+0.80V

The substance having highest positive E^o potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction. Here, silver will always undergo reduction reaction will get reduced.

Chromium will undergo oxidation reaction and will get oxidized.

The half reactions for the above cell is:

Oxidation half reaction: Cr(s)\rightarrow Cr^{3+}+3e^-;E^o_{Cr^{3+}/Cr}=-0.73V

Reduction half reaction: Ag^{+}+e^-\rightarrow Ag(s);E^o_{Ag^{+}/Ag}=0.80V       ( × 3)

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

Oxidation reaction occurs at anode and reduction reaction occurs at cathode.

To calculate the E^o_{cell} of the reaction, we use the equation:

E^o_{cell}=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

E^o_{cell}=0.80-(-0.73)=1.53V

Hence, the correct answer is 3Ag^+(aq.)+Cr(s)\rightarrow 3Ag(s)+Cr^{3+}(aq.);E^o_{cell}=+1.53V

If the sun was 1 meter (about 3 feet) in size the earth would be __________ meters away
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

The Sun is 864,400 miles (1,391,000 kilometers) across. This is about 109 times the diameter of Earth. The Sun weighs about 333,000 times as much as Earth. It is so large that about 1,300,000 planet Earths can fit inside of it.

Magnesium has three naturally occurring isotopes(Mg-24, Mg-25, and Mg-26). The atomic mass and natural abundance of Mg-24 are 23
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

Data

               Atomic mass               Abundance

Mg -24 =    23.9850                         79%

Mg -25 =    24.9858                         10%  

Mg - 26=          ?                                  ?

Process

1.- Find the abundance of Mg-26

The sum of the abundance of the three isotopes equals 100%

         

 Abundance Mg-24 + Abundance-Mg-25 + Abundance-26 = 100

            79 + 10 + Abundance-26 = 100

            Abundance Mg-26 = 100 -89

           Abundance Mg-26 = 11%

2.- Find the atomic mass of Mg-26, the average atomic mass is 24.31 amu

Average atomic mass = (abundance)(atomic mass- 24) + (abundance)

                                         (atomic mass-25) + (abundance)(atomic mass-26)

    24.31 = (0.79)(23.9850)+ (0.10)(24.9858) + (Atomic mass-26)(0.11)

    24.31 = 18.94815 + 2.4986 + 0.11(atomic mass-26)

    24.31 = 21.4342 + 0.11(atomic mass- 26)

    0.11(atomic mass-26) = 24.31 - 21.4342

    0.11(atomic mass-26) = 2.8758

    Atomic mass-26 = 2.8758/0.11

 <u>   Atomic mass-26 = 26.1436 amu</u>

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The correct answer is: Dynamic equilibrium in a chemical reaction is the condition in which the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction.

Explanation:

Dynamic equilibrium is a chemical equilibrium between froward reaction and backward or reverse reaction where rate of reaction going forwards is equal to the rate of reaction going backward (reverse).  

Some other properties of dynamic equilibrium are:

  • Chemical equilibrium are attained is closed system.
  • The macroscopic remains constant like: volume, pressure, energy etc.
  • The concentration of the reactants and products remain constant.They are not always equal.
