lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Electrons will flow from left to right through the wire.

Pb^2+ ions will be reduccd to Pb metal.

The concentration of Sn2+ ions in the left compartment will increase.

Explanation:

Looking at the relative electrode potentials of the two metals

Sn= -0.14

Pb=-0.13

Tin is expected to function as the anode (left hand half cell) and lead as the anode (right hand half cell) tin oxidizes to sn^2+ hence its concentration increases on the left compartment while lead is reduced to ordinary lead metal on the right hand half cell . since oxidation occurs on the left hand side, electrons flow from left to right.

<span>1. A cylinder is submerged in water as illustrated in the diagram. Which of the following statements is true?

</span><span>The pressure at D is greater than at B. This is because D is trying to get back to the surface with an amount of pressure. B has less amount of pressure.

</span><span>2. A cylinder is submerged in water as illustrated in the diagram. If the area of the top and the bottom of the cylinder is the same, which of the following statements is true?

</span><span>buoyant force = (force D - force A).

Edit: If you ever notice. When you fill a sink full of water. Put a glass upside down and try forcefully to submerge it under the water it will resist. This is because of the pressure and air. The glass is less dense then water. (Also depends on the glass)</span>

It is recommended that drinking water contain 1.6 ppm fluo- ride (F) to prevent tooth decay. Consider a cylindrical reservoir wi
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

32,127.02 grams of hydrogen hexafluorosilicate will contain this 25,434  grams of F.

Explanation:

Volume of cylindrical reservoir = V

Radius of the cylindrical reservoir = r = d/2

d = diameter of the cylindrical reservoir = d =4.50\times 10^1 m=45 m

r = d/2 = 22.5 m

Depth of the reservoir = h =  10.0 m

V=\pi r^2 h

=3.14\times (22.5 m)^2\times 10.0 m=15,896.25 m^3=15,896,250 L

1 m^3=1000 l

Volume of water cylindrical reservoir : V

Density of water,d = 1 kg/L

Mass of water cylindrical reservoir =  m

m=d\times V=1 kg/L\times 15,896,250 L=15,896,250 kg

1.6 kilogram of fluorine per million kilograms of water. (Given)

Concentration of fluorine in water = 1.6 kg/ 1000,000 kg of water

In 1000,000 kg of water = 1.6 kg of fluorine

Then 15,896,250 kg of water have x mass of fluorine:

\frac{x}{15,896,250 kg\text{kg of water}}=\frac{1.6 kg}{1000,000 \text{kg of water}}

x=\frac{1.6 kg}{1000,000}\times 15,896,250 kg=25.434 kg

15,896,250 kg water of contains mass 25.434 kg of fluorine.

25.434 kg = 25434 g

25,434  grams of fluorine  should be added to give 1.6 ppm.

Percentage of fluorine in hydrogen hexafluorosilicate :

Molar mass hydrogen hexafluorosilicate = 144 g/mol

F\%=\frac{6\times 19 g/mol}{144 g/mol}\times 100=79.16\%

Total mass of hydrogen hexafluorosilicate = m'

79.16\%=\frac{25,434 g}{m'}\times 100

m' = 32,127.02 g

32,127.02 grams of hydrogen hexafluorosilicate will contain this 25,434  grams of F.

How are protons, neutrons be, and electrons similar?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

This is how

Explanation:

<em>Protons and neutrons have approximately the same mass, but they are both much more massive than electrons (approximately 2,000 times as massive as an electron). The positive charge on a proton is equal in magnitude to the negative charge on an electron.</em>
