Answer:
Electrons will flow from left to right through the wire.
Pb^2+ ions will be reduccd to Pb metal.
The concentration of Sn2+ ions in the left compartment will increase.
Explanation:
Looking at the relative electrode potentials of the two metals
Sn= -0.14
Pb=-0.13
Tin is expected to function as the anode (left hand half cell) and lead as the anode (right hand half cell) tin oxidizes to sn^2+ hence its concentration increases on the left compartment while lead is reduced to ordinary lead metal on the right hand half cell . since oxidation occurs on the left hand side, electrons flow from left to right.
The affect of plate movement might have on the size of the ocean basin would be negative and over many millenia it will gradually decrease in size
The answer is "chemical properties". The original water is split apart by the current
<span>to form its constituent elements, hydrogen & oxygen. This is a chemical change, as </span>
<span>the original water is lost and new substances, H2 & O2, are produced. </span>
<span>Hope this answers your question.</span>
