Answer : The cell potential for this reaction is 0.50 V

Explanation :

The given cell reactions is:

Pb^{2+}(aq)+Zn(s)\rightarrow Zn^{2+}(aq)+Pb(s)

The half-cell reactions are:

Oxidation half reaction (anode):  Zn\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+2e^-

Reduction half reaction (cathode):  Pb^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Pb

First we have to calculate the cell potential for this reaction.

Using Nernest equation :

E_{cell}=E^o_{cell}-\frac{2.303RT}{nF}\log \frac{[Zn^{2+}]}{[Pb^{2+}]}

where,

F = Faraday constant = 96500 C

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

T = room temperature = 25^oC=273+25=298K

n = number of electrons in oxidation-reduction reaction = 2

E^o_{cell} = standard electrode potential of the cell = +0.63 V

E_{cell} = cell potential for the reaction = ?

[Zn^{2+}] = 3.5 M

[Pb^{2+}] = 2.0\times 10^{-4}M

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

E_{cell}=(+0.63)-\frac{2.303\times (8.314)\times (298)}{2\times 96500}\log \frac{3.5}{2.0\times 10^{-4}}

E_{cell}=0.50V

Therefore, the cell potential for this reaction is 0.50 V

Material A has a small latent heat of fusion. Material B has a large heat of fusion. Which of the following statements is true?
Olin [163]
The correct answer would be the first option. Material A having a smaller latent heat of fusion would mean that it will take only less energy to phase change into the liquid phase. Latent of heat of fusion is the amount of energy needed of a substance to phase change from solid to liquid or liquid to solid.

What is the concentration of FeCl3 in a solution prepared by dissolving 10.0 g of FeCl3 in enough water to make 275 mL of soluti
puteri [66]

Answer: The concentartion of solution will be 0.224 M

Explanation:

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present per liter of the solution.

Formula used :

Molarity=\frac{n\times 1000}{V_s}

where,

n= moles of solute =\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}=\frac{10.0g}{162.2g/mol}=0.0616moles

{V_s} = volume of solution in ml = 275 ml

Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get

Molarity=\frac{0.0616\times 1000}{275ml}=0.224mole/L

Therefore, the concentration of solution will be 0.224 M
