If the number of neutrons are changed in an atom, it makes an isotope of that atom. In an atom number of protons is equal to number of electrons.
we can find the number of neutrons by subtracting atomic number from the mass of an atom.
here atomic mass of iron isotope is 55 and we know from periodic table that atomic number of iron is 26 so 55 -26 = 29
there are 29 neutrons.

<u>Answer:</u> The value of K_c for the net reaction is \frac{K_b}{K_w}

<u>Explanation:</u>

The given chemical equations follows:

<u>Equation 1:</u>  B(aq.)+H_2O(l)\rightleftharpoons HB^+(aq.)+OH^-(aq.);K_b

<u>Equation 2:</u>  H^+(aq.)+OH^-(aq.)\rightleftharpoons H_2O(l);\frac{1}{K_w}

The net equation follows:

B(aq.)+H^+(aq.)\rightleftharpoons HB^+(aq.);K_c

As, the net reaction is the result of the addition of first equation and the second equation. So, the equilibrium constant for the net reaction will be the multiplication of first equilibrium constant and the second equilibrium constant.

The value of equilibrium constant for net reaction is:

K_c=K_1\times K_2

We are given:  

K_1=K_b

K_2=\frac{1}{K_w}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

K_c=K_b\times \frac{1}{K_w}=\frac{K_b}{K_w}

Hence, the value of K_c for the net reaction is \frac{K_b}{K_w}

Answer:

Explanation:

The relation between equilibrium constant and Ecell is given below .

E⁰cell = (RT / nF ) lnK  , F is faraday constant T is 273 + 25 = 298 K

E⁰cell  =  1.46 - 1.21 = .25 V

n = 2

Putting the values

.25 = (8.314 x 298  lnK) / (2 x 96485 )

lnK = 19.47

K = 2.85 x 10⁸

2 )

Change in free energy Δ G

Δ G ⁰ = nE⁰ F

n = 4

E⁰ = .4 + .83 = 1.23 V

Δ G ⁰= 4 x 1.23 x 96485

= 474706 J / mol

3 )

E⁰cell = (RT / nF ) lnK

n = 2

1.78 = 8.314 x 298  lnK / 2 x 96485

lnK = 138.638

K = 1.62 x 10⁶⁰
