Tarnish on copper is the compound CuO. A tarnished copper plate is placed in an aluminum pan of boiling water. When enough salt

is added so that the solution conducts electricity, the tarnish disappears. Imagine that the two halves of this redox reaction were separated and connected with a wire and a salt bridge. Part A Calculate the standard cell potential given the following standard reduction potentials: Al3++3e−→Al;E∘=−1.66 V Cu2++2e−→Cu;E∘=0.340 V Express your answer to two decimal places and include the appropriate units.

Answer:

The standard cell potential is 2.00 V

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

Cu is cathode because of higher EP

Al3++3e−→Al       E∘=−1.66 V     anode

Cu2++2e−→Cu    E∘=0.340 V    cathode

<u>Step 2:</u> Balance both equations

2*(Al → Al3+-3e−)       E∘=1.66 V    

3*(Cu2++2e−→Cu)    E∘=0.340 V

<u>Step 3:</u> The netto equation

2 Al + 3Cu2+ +6e- → 2Al3+ + 3Cu -6e-

2 Al + 3Cu2+  → 2Al3+ + 3Cu

<u>Step 4:</u> Calculate the standard cell potential

E∘cell = E∘cathode - E∘anode

E∘cell = E∘ Cu2+/Cu - E∘ Al3+/Al

E∘cell =0.340 V - (-1.66) = 2.00 V

The standard cell potential is 2.00 V

What is sodium + oxygen when doing ionic bonds
Marta_Voda [28]

When burning sodium (Na) in oxygen (O2), you get sodium oxide (Na2O) and/or sodium peroxide (Na2O2). At high pressures, you can additionally get sodium superoxide (NaO2).

4 Na + O2 → 2 Na2O, and then partially 2 Na2O + O2 → 2 Na2O2.

Under normal conditions, approximately 20% of the mixture is Na2O2.

6 Na + 2 O2 → 2 Na2O + Na2O2

The reaction for producing glucose in plants, called photosynthesis, is:
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

41.16 moles of H2O

Explanation:

Ratio for the products-reactants is 1:6, so 1 mol of glucose is produced when plants use 6 moles of water.

Then, let's make a rule of three:

1 mol of glucose is produce by using 6 moles of water

6.86 moles of glucose are produced by the use of (6 . 6.86)/1 = 41.16 moles of H2O

Characteristics of matter that cannot be changed are called
olchik [2.2K]
It is called Mass.

Among the physical characteristics of a matter which includes Weight, Mass, Volume, and Density the only characteristic that does not change is the mass. The mass of an object never change from place to place. All the objects have a mass and that is why there is a weight but it changes depends on the gravity. Mass don't.
