A concentration cell is built based on the following half reactions by using two pieces of zinc as electrodes, two Zn2+ solution

s, 0.129 M and 0.427 M, and all other materials needed for a galvanic cell. What will the potential of this cell be when the cathode concentration of Zn2+ has changed by 0.047 M at 291 K?
Zn2+ + 2 e- ? Zn Eo = -0.761 V

Explanation:

The given reaction at cathode will be as follows.

At cathode: Zn^{2+} + 2e^{-} \rightarrow Zn,     E_{o} = -0.761 V

At anode: Zn \rightarrow Zn^{2+} + 2e^{-},       E_{o} = 0.761

Therefore, net reaction equation will be as follows.

                 Zn^{2+} + Zn \rightarrow Zn + Zn^{2+}

Initial:     0.129         -            -       0.427

Change:  -0.047      -            -     -0.047

Equilibrium: (0.129 - 0.047)      (0.427 - 0.047)

                = 0.082                       = 0.38

As E^{o}_{cell} for the given reaction is zero.

Hence, equation for calculating new cell potential will be as follows.

                   E_{cell} = E^{o}_{cell} - \frac{RT}{nF} ln \frac{[Zn^{2+}]_{products}}{[Zn^{2+}]_{reactants}}

                              = 0 - \frac{8.314 atm L/mol K \times 291 K}{2 \times 96500} ln \frac{0.38}{0.082}

                              = 0.019

Thus, we can conclude that the cell potential of the given cell is 0.019.

Calculate the number of moles and molecules of acetic acid in 22gm of it​
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

0.366 moles to the nearest thousandth.

Explanation:

The molar mass of acetic acid CH3COOH = 2*12 + 4(1.008) + 2*16

= 60.03 g so the number of moles in 22 g

= 0.366.

Verizon [17]
The answer is iii) decreasing the pressure of the system. When the pressure is decreased, the equilibrium will shift to the right because it has 12 moles of gas which is greater than the number of moles of gas on the left side, which is 6 moles. Equilibrium shifting to the side that exerts greater pressure is favored to offset the decrease in pressure.
