<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For 1:</u> The largest positive cell potential is of cell having 1st and 4th half reactions.

<u>For 2:</u> The standard electrode potential of the cell is 1.539 V

<u>For 3:</u> The smallest positive cell potential is of cell having 3rd and 4th half reactions. The standard electrode potential of the cell is 0.46 V

<u>Explanation:</u>

The substance having highest positive E^o potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction.

We are given:

Ag^++(aq.)+e^-\rightarrow Ag(s);E^o_{Ag^+/Ag}=0.799V\\\\Cu^{2+}+(aq.)+2e^-\rightarrow Cu(s);E^o_{Cu^{2+}/Cu}=0.337V\\\\Ni^{2+}(aq.)+2e^-\rightarrow Ni(s);E^o_{Ni^{2+}/Ni}=-0.28V\\\\Cr^{3+}(aq.)+3e^-\rightarrow Cr(s);E^o_{Cr^{3+}/Cr}=-0.74V

Substance getting oxidized always act as anode and the one getting reduced always act as cathode.

To calculate the E^o_{cell} of the reaction, we use the equation:

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

  • <u>Cell having 1st and 2nd half reactions:</u>

Silver has higher electrode potential. So, this will undergo reduction reaction and act as anode. Copper will undergo oxidation reaction and act as cathode.

E^o_{cell}=0.799-0.337=0.462V

  • <u>Cell having 1st and 3rd half reactions:</u>

Silver has higher electrode potential. So, this will undergo reduction reaction and act as anode. Nickel will undergo oxidation reaction and act as cathode.

E^o_{cell}=0.799-(-0.28)=1.079V

  • <u>Cell having 1st and 4th half reactions:</u>

Silver has higher electrode potential. So, this will undergo reduction reaction and act as anode. Chromium will undergo oxidation reaction and act as cathode.

E^o_{cell}=0.799-(-0.74)=1.539V

  • <u>Cell having 2nd and 3rd half reactions:</u>

Copper has higher electrode potential. So, this will undergo reduction reaction and act as anode. Nickel will undergo oxidation reaction and act as cathode.

E^o_{cell}=0.337-(-0.28)=0.617V

  • <u>Cell having 3rd and 4th half reactions:</u>

Nickel has higher electrode potential. So, this will undergo reduction reaction and act as anode. Chromium will undergo oxidation reaction and act as cathode.

E^o_{cell}=-0.28-(-0.74)=0.46V

Hence,

<u>For 1:</u> The largest positive cell potential is of cell having 1st and 4th half reactions.

<u>For 2:</u> The standard electrode potential of the cell is 1.539 V

<u>For 3:</u> The smallest positive cell potential is of cell having 3rd and 4th half reactions. The standard electrode potential of the cell is 0.46 V

3. At STP, how many liters of oxygen gas are required to react completely with 3.2 x 10^22
Mrrafil [7]

The volume of oxygen required to react with 3.2 * 10²² molecules of hydrogen is 0.56 L.

<h3>What is stoichiometric law?</h3>

The stoichiometric law has been given as the representation of the moles of product and reactant in a chemical reaction are represented by the stoichiometric coefficient.

It has been known that 1 mole of a compound has 6.023 * 10²³ molecules. Thus, the moles of hydrogen gas equivalent to 3.2 * 10²² molecules has been:

6.023 * 10²³ molecules = 1 mole

3.2 * 10²² molecules = 1/6.023 * 10²³ * 3.2 * 10²² moles

3.2 * 10²²  molecules = 0.05 moles

Thus, the moles of hydrogen gas available is 0.05 moles.

From the stoichiometric law, according to the balanced chemical equation,

2 moles of hydrogen requires = 1 moles of oxygen

0.05 moles of hydrogen requires = 1/2 * 0.05 moles oxygen

0.05 moles of hydrogen requires =  0.025 moles oxygen

Thus, the moles of oxygen required is 0.025 moles. At STP, a mole of gas been equivalent to 22.4 L . Thus, the volume of 0.025 moles oxygen has been:

1 mole = 22.4 L

0.025 moles = 22.4 * 0.025 L

0.025 mole = 0.56 L

Thus, the volume of oxygen required to react with 3.2 * 10²² molecules of hydrogen is 0.56 L.

Show the relationship of number of moles and volume in Avogadro's law using data. Write your calculations and answer on a separa
leonid [27]

Answer:

See below ~

Explanation:

The calculated values of V/n :

⇒ 1.5/0.3 = 5

⇒ 3/0.6 = 5

⇒ 4.5/0.9 = 5

⇒ 6/1.2 = 5

⇒ 7.5/1.5 = 5

1. From this we understand that the calculated values of V/n remain constant, equal to <u>5</u> in this case.

2. The volume-mole graph will be a straight line passing through the origin. (Attached below)
