Answer:

\boxed{\text{(a) 0.00 V; (b) 0.424 V}}

Explanation:

We must look up the standard reduction potentials for the half-reactions.

                                                                  <u>   ℰ°     </u>

Cr₂O₇²⁻ + 14H⁺ + 6e⁻ ⇌ 2Cr³⁺ + 7H₂O     1.36

Cl₂ + 2e⁻ ⇌ 2Cl⁻                                       1.35827

2IO₃⁻ + 12H⁺ + 10e⁻ ⇌ I₂ + 6H₂O             1.195

Fe³⁺ + e⁻ ⇌ Fe²⁺                                      0.771

(a) Cr³⁺/Cl₂

We reverse the sign of ℰ° for the oxidation half-reaction. Then we add the two half-reactions and their ℰ° values.

                                                                               <u>   ℰ°/V     </u>

2Cr³⁺ + 7H₂O ⇌ Cr₂O₇²⁻ + 14H⁺ + 6e⁻                  -1.36

<u>Cl₂ + 2e⁻ ⇌ 2Cl⁻                                                </u>     <u>1.358 27 </u>

2Cr³⁺ + 3Cl₂ + 7H₂O ⇌ Cr₂O₇²⁻  + 6Cl⁻ + 14H⁺     0.00

(b) Fe²⁺/IO₃⁻

                                                                           <u> ℰ°/V </u>

Fe²⁺ ⇌ Fe³⁺ + e⁻                                                -0.771

<u>2IO₃⁻ + 12H⁺ + 10e⁻ ⇌ I₂ + 6H₂O                   </u>   <u>  1.195 </u>

10Fe²⁺ + 2IO₃⁻ + 12H⁺ ⇌ 10Fe³⁺ + I₂ + 6H₂O     0.424

The ℰ° values for the cells are \boxed{\textbf{(a) 0.00 V; (b) 0.424 V}}

The density of no2 in a 4.50 l tank at 760.0 torr and 25.0 °c is ________ g/l.
kap26 [50]
From  ideal  gas  equation   that   is   PV=nRT
n(number of  moles)=PV/RT
P=760 torr
V=4.50L
R(gas  constant =62.363667torr/l/mol
T=273 +273=298k
n  is   therefore   (760torr x4.50L) /62.36367 torr/L/mol  x298k  =0.184moles
the  molar  mass  of  NO2 is  46  therefore  density=  0.184  x  46=8.464g/l

A piece of sodium metal reacts completely with water to produce sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. the hydrogen gas generated is
Evgesh-ka [11]
We get the pressure of the hydrogen gas from the difference between the measured pressure and the vapor pressure of water:
     total pressure = Pressure of H2 + Vapor Pressure of H2O
     1.00 atm = Pressure of H2 + 0.0313 atm
     Pressure of H2 = 1.00 atm - 0.0313 atm = 0.9687 atm

From the ideal gas law,
     PV = nRT
we can calculate for the number of moles of H2 as
     n = PV/RT = (0.9687 atm)(0.246L) / (0.08206 L·atm/mol·K)(298.15 K)
        = 0.00974 mol H2
where 
     V = 246 mL (1 L / 1000 mL) = 0.246 L
     T = 25 degrees Celsius + 273.15 = 298.15 K 

We use the mole ratio of Na and H2 from the reaction of sodium metal with water as shown in the equation 
     2Na(s) + 2H2O(l) → 2 NaOH(aq) + H2(g)
and the molar mass of sodium Na to get the mass of sodium used in the reaction:
     mass of Na = 0.00974 mol H2 (2 mol Na /1 mol H2)(22.99 g Na/1 mol Na)
                        = 0.448 grams of sodium

How many moles of nitrogen gas will occupy a volume of 5L at 3.85 atm and 27c?
Olegator [25]

Answer:

n=0.78mol

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it possible for us to realize that this problem is solved via the ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

By which we solve for n (moles) as shown below:

n=\frac{PV}{RT}

Then, we plug in the given pressure, volume and temperature (in K) to obtain:

n=\frac{3.85atm*5L}{0.08206\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*(273+27)K} \\\\n=0.78mol

Regards!

Differences and similarities in a mixture and compound
kumpel [21]
Mixture:  matter than is composed of two or more substances that can be separated by physical means (ex; let's say you have a jar of red and blue marbles. this is a mixture. You can separate the colors with your hands (physical means.)) 

Compound: a substance in which two or more atoms are chemically combined in a fixed proportion (ex: water is a compound that consists of the element hydrogen and the element oxygen).
