Where does oxidation occur in an electrochemical cell?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Studentka2010 [4]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:  (3) at the anode in both an electrolytic cell and a voltaic cell

Explanation:  Electrolytic cells are the cells which convert electrical energy into chemical energy. For this purpose, 2 rods or electrodes are kept in the chemical solution. One is cathode and the other one is anode.

Anode is the electrode at which oxidation takes place and the sign of the electrode is positive and Cathode is the electrode at which reduction takes place and the sign of the electrode is negative.

Voltaic cells are the opposite of the electrolytic cell and both of the processes are same but the signs of the electrode are opposite. Anode is negatively charged and cathode is positively charged in this cell.

Thus option (3 is correct) as oxidation occurs at anode in both an electrolytic cell an voltaic cell.

(3); try using the phrase "AN OX ate the RED CAT"
(anode=oxidation, reduction=cathode)

Fill in the blank with the correct answer. The longer the handle the __________ the mechanical advantage and the greater the inc
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Greater

Explanation:

The longer the handle, the greater the mechanical advantage and the greater the increase in force that is applied to the bolt.

Mechanical advantage is the rate at which force is multiplied.

  • It simply compares the output force to the input force.
  • M.A is the force increasing tendency of a tool.
  • The longer  the handle, the more the mechanical advantage and the lesser the applied force.

Why doesn’t neon readily form an ionic bond?
Goryan [66]

By definition of noble gases, neon does not easily form an ionic bond because it belongs to the group of noble or inert gases, so its reactivity is practically nil.

<h3>Noble gases</h3>

Noble gases are not very reactive, that is, they practically do not form chemical compounds. This means that they do not react with other substances, nor do they even react between atoms of the same gas, as is the case with diatomic gases such as oxygen (O₂).

The chemical stability of the noble gases and therefore the absence of spontaneous evolution towards any other chemical form, implies that they are already in a state of maximum stability.

All chemical transformations involve valence electrons, they are involved in the process of covalent bond formation and the formation of ions. Therefore, the practically null reactivity of the noble gases is due to the fact that they have a complete valence shell, which gives them a low tendency to capture or release electrons.

Since the noble gases do not react with the other elements, they are also called inert gases.

<h3>Neon</h3>

Neon does not easily form an ionic bond because it belongs to the group of noble or inert gases, so its reactivity is practically nil.
