Hatshy [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Cell potential at 25 C is 1.69 V

Explanation:

The given half cell reactions are:

Oxidation (Anode)

Pb(s)\rightarrow Pb^{2+}(aq, 0.16 M )+2e^{-}-------(1)

where E°= -0.13 V

Reduction (Cathode):

MnO_{4}^{-}(aq, 1.70 M )+4H^{+}(aq, 1.9 M )+3e^{-}\rightarrow MnO_{2}(s)+2H_{2}O(l)------(2)

where E°= +1.51 V

The net reaction is obtained by:

Eq (1) * 3 + Eq(2) * 2

2MnO_{4}^{-}(aq, 1.70 M )+8H^{+}(aq, 1.9 M )+3Pb(s)\rightarrow  2MnO_{2}(s)+4H_{2}O(l)+3Pb^{2+}(aq, 0.16 M)

The value of E°(cell) is:

E_{cell}^{0}=E_{cathode}^{0}+E_{anode}^{0}=1.51-(-0.13)=1.64 V

The E(cell) at 25 C is calculated based on the nernst equation:

E_{cell}=E_{cell}^{0}-\frac{0.02568}{n}ln\frac{[Pb^{2+}]^{3}}{[H^{+}]^{8}[MnO_{4}^{-}]^{2}}

where n = number of electrons = 6

E_{cell}=1.64-\frac{0.02568}{6}ln\frac{[0.16]^{3}}{[1.9]^{8}[1.70]^{2}}=1.69 V

If a temperature increase from 10.0 ∘C to 22.0 ∘C doubles the rate constant for a reaction, what is the value of the activation
maria [59]

The activation energy barrier is 40.1 kJ·mol⁻¹

Use the Arrhenius equation

\ln( \frac{k_2 }{k_1 }) = (\frac{E_{a} }{R })(\frac{ 1}{T_1} - \frac{1 }{T_2 })\\

\ln( \frac{2k }{k}) = (\frac{E_{a} }{\text{8.314 J} \cdot \text{K}^{-1} \text{mol}^{-1} })(\frac{ 1}{\text{283.15 K}} - \frac{1 }{\text{295.15 K }})\\

\ln2 = (\frac{ E_{a} }{\text{8.314 J} \cdot \text{K}^{-1} \text{mol}^{-1}}) \times 1.436 \times10^{-4}\\

\ln2 = E_{a} \times 1.727 \times 10^{-5} \text{ mol} \cdot \text{J}^{-1}

E_{a} = \frac{\ln2 }{ 1.727 \times10^{-5}\text{ mol} \cdot \text{J}^{-1}}\\

E_{a} = \text{40 100 J}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1} = \textbf{40.1 kJ}\cdot \textbf{mol}^{-1}
