Hydro- meaning Hydrogen.
Carbon- meaning Carbon.

Hydrogen and Carbon. Carbon atoms form the framework, and Hydrogen atoms attach to them in many different configurations.

Hope this helps!

The standard cell potential Ec for the reduction of silver ions with elemental copper is 0.46V at 25 degrees celsius. calculate

Cloud [144]

Answer : The $\Delta G$ for this reaction is, -88780 J/mole.

Solution :

The balanced cell reaction will be,

$Cu(s)+2Ag^+(aq)\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq)+2Ag(s)$

Here, magnesium (Cu) undergoes oxidation by loss of electrons, thus act as anode. silver (Ag) undergoes reduction by gain of electrons and thus act as cathode.

The half oxidation-reduction reaction will be :

Oxidation : $Cu\rightarrow Cu^{2+}+2e^-$

Reduction : $2Ag^++2e^-\rightarrow 2Ag$

Now we have to calculate the Gibbs free energy.

Formula used :

$\Delta G^o=-nFE^o$

where,

$\Delta G^o$ = Gibbs free energy = ?

n = number of electrons to balance the reaction = 2

F = Faraday constant = 96500 C/mole

$E^o$ = standard e.m.f of cell = 0.46 V

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the Gibbs free energy.

$\Delta G^o=-(2\times 96500\times 0.46)=-88780J/mole$

Therefore, the $\Delta G$ for this reaction is, -88780 J/mole.

Mid-Ocean Ridges

Two examples of Mid-Ocean Ridges are the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and the East Pacific Rise.

Explanation:

Mid-ocean ridges are mountain-like geographical features on the ocean floor. They usually line along the divergent boundaries of tectonic plates moving away from each other. This is because as the plates move in opposite direction, the vacuum in between the plates is filled by upwelling magma from the mantle. Usually the texture of the rocks that form these mountain ridges has bands. This is because, before the magma cools, the iron in the magma (due to its ferromagnetic property) aligns with the earths magnetic field. The earth magnetic flux flips over several 1000 years hence these bands orient themselves differently depending on the magnetic field orientation at the time they were formed.

Calculate the pka of hypochlorous acid. The ph of a 0.015 m solution of hypochlorous acid has a ph of 4.64.

o-na [289]

Answer:

pKa = 7.46

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) Hypochlorous acid = HClO

b) [HClO} = 0.015

c) pH = 4.64

d) pKa = ?

2) Strategy:

With the pH calculate [H₃O⁺], then use the equilibrium equation to calculate the equilibrium constant, Ka, and finally calculate pKa from the definition.

3) Solution:

a) pH
