Salutations!

A substance placed in a container has a fixed volume and takes up the shape of the container. In which state does this substance exist?
Liquid state is the state where this substance exist. Liquid doesn't have a fixed shape because there is more space between them. That is why they take the shape of the container.

Hope I helped (:

Have a great day!

A voltaic cell consists of a Zn&gt;Zn2+ half-cell and a Ni&gt;Ni2+ half-cell at 25 °C. The initial concentrations of Ni2+ and Zn
nlexa [21]

Answer :

(a) The initial cell potential is, 0.53 V

(b) The cell potential when the concentration of Ni^{2+} has fallen to 0.500 M is, 0.52 V

(c) The concentrations of Ni^{2+} and Zn^{2+} when the cell potential falls to 0.45 V are, 0.01 M and 1.59 M

Explanation :

The values of standard reduction electrode potential of the cell are:

E^0_{[Ni^{2+}/Ni]}=-0.23V

E^0_{[Zn^{2+}/Zn]}=-0.76V

From this we conclude that, the zinc (Zn) undergoes oxidation by loss of electrons and thus act as anode. Nickel (Ni) undergoes reduction by gain of electrons and thus act as cathode.

The half reaction will be:

Reaction at anode (oxidation) : Zn\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+2e^-     E^0_{[Zn^{2+}/Zn]}=-0.76V

Reaction at cathode (reduction) : Ni^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Ni     E^0_{[Ni^{2+}/Ni]}=-0.23V

The balanced cell reaction will be,  

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

First we have to calculate the standard electrode potential of the cell.

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

E^o=E^o_{[Ni^{2+}/Ni]}-E^o_{[Zn^{2+}/Zn]}

E^o=(-0.23V)-(-0.76V)=0.53V

(a) Now we have to calculate the cell potential.

Using Nernest equation :

E_{cell}=E^o_{cell}-\frac{0.0592}{n}\log \frac{[Zn^{2+}]}{[Ni^{2+}]}

where,

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

E_{cell} = emf of the cell = ?

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

E_{cell}=0.53-\frac{0.0592}{2}\log \frac{(0.100)}{(1.50)}

E_{cell}=0.49V

(b) Now we have to calculate the cell potential when the concentration of Ni^{2+} has fallen to 0.500 M.

New concentration of Ni^{2+} = 1.50 - x = 0.500

x = 1 M

New concentration of Zn^{2+} = 0.100 + x = 0.100 + 1 = 1.1 M

Using Nernest equation :

E_{cell}=E^o_{cell}-\frac{0.0592}{n}\log \frac{[Zn^{2+}]}{[Ni^{2+}]}

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

E_{cell}=0.53-\frac{0.0592}{2}\log \frac{(1.1)}{(0.500)}

E_{cell}=0.52V

(c) Now we have to calculate the concentrations of Ni^{2+} and Zn^{2+} when the cell potential falls to 0.45 V.

Using Nernest equation :

E_{cell}=E^o_{cell}-\frac{0.0592}{n}\log \frac{[Zn^{2+}+x]}{[Ni^{2+}-x]}

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

0.45=0.53-\frac{0.0592}{2}\log \frac{(0.100+x)}{(1.50-x)}

x=1.49M

The concentration of Ni^{2+} = 1.50 - x = 1.50 - 1.49 = 0.01 M

The concentration of Zn^{2+} = 0.100 + x = 0.100 + 1.49 = 1.59 M

Which of the following is likely to have the lowest viscosity? hot oil room temperature oil room temperature water below room te
zzz [600]

Viscosity, is a state of matter where it resists flow or may be in thick semifluid form because of friction acting inside the matter.In this case, hot oil room temperature would lessen the viscosity of the oil (animal oil). Thank you for your question. Please don't hesitate to ask in Brainly your queries.
