In the equation Zn+2HCL ---->ZnCl2 + H 2 the reactants are

1 answer:

4 0

Zn and HCl are the reactant in the equation above. zinc react with 2 moles of Hcl to form zinc chloride and a hydrogen molecule. The one equation means that the reaction proceed to the forward side only therefore no reverse of the reaction.

Using the following standard reduction potentials, Fe3+(aq) + e- → Fe2+(aq) E° = +0.77 V Ni2+(aq) + 2 e- → Ni(s) E° = -0.23 V ca

lina2011 [118]

Answer: The above reaction is non-spontaneous.

Explanation:

For the given chemical reaction:

$Ni^{2+}(aq.)+2Fe^{2+}(aq.)\rightarrow 2Fe^{3+}(aq.)+Ni(s)$

Here, nickel is getting reduced because it is gaining electrons and iron is getting oxidized because it is loosing electrons.

We know that:

$E^o_{(Fe^{3+}/Fe^{2+})}=0.77V\\E^o_{(Ni^{2+}/Ni)}=-0.23V$

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:

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

$E^o_{cell}=-0.23-0.77=-1.0V$

Relationship between standard Gibbs free energy and standard electrode potential follows:

$\Delta G^o=-nFE^o_{cell}$

As, the standard electrode potential of the cell is coming out to be negative for the above cell. Thus, the standard Gibbs free energy change of the reaction will become positive making the reaction non-spontaneous.

Hence, the above reaction is non-spontaneous.

The density of osmium, which is the densest metal, is 22.57 g/cm^3. What is the mass of a block of osmium that measures 1.00 cm

olganol [36]

Density = Mass / Volume
V = 1.00 * 4.00 * 2.50 = 10 cm³
22.57 g/cm³ = Mass / 10 cm³
M = 22.57 g/cm³ * 10 cm³
M = 225.7 g
Answer: The mass of the block of osmium is 225.7 g.

At elevations higher than sea level the atmospheric pressure is ___ than the atmospheric pressure at sea level

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

lower

Explanation:

The higher the sea level, the lower the atmospheric pressure. This is due to the density of air decreasing as the altitude increases.
