An electrochemical cell is based on the following two half-reactions:

Chemistry
1 answer:
Hatshy [7]3 years ago

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

The bonds in the reactants of Figure 7-3 contained 372 kJ of chemical energy and the bonds in the products contained 350 kJ of c
satela [25.4K]

Answer: 22 kJ amount of energy is released in the following reaction.

Explanation: There are two types of reaction on the basis of amount of heat absorbed or released.

1. Endothermic reactions: These are the type of reactions in which reactants absorb heat to form the products. The energy of the reactants is less than the energy of the products.

2. Exothermic reactions: These are the type of reactions in which heat is released from the chemical reactions. The energy of the products is less than the reactants.

Sign convention for \Delta H: This value is negative for exothermic reactions and positive for endothermic reactions.

For the given chemical reaction,

Energy of the products is less than the energy of the reactants, Hence, this reaction will be a type of exothermic reaction and energy will be released during this chemical change.

Amount of energy released = (350 - 372) kJ = -22kJ

Negative sign symbolizes the energy is being released. So, 22 kJ amount of energy is released in the following reaction.

For the reaction so3 + h2o h2so4, calculate the percent yield if 500. g of sulfur trioxide react with excess water to produce 57
Lelu [443]
The %  yield  if  500 g of  sulfur trioxide  reacted  with  excess  water to   produce  575 g  of  sulfuric  acid is calculated using  the  below  formula


%  yield = actual  yield/ theoretical  yield  x100

actual  yield =575 grams
to  calculate  theoretical  yield
find the  moles  of SO3   used =mass/molar  mass
=  500g/   80 g/mol =6.25  moles

SO3+H2O=H2SO4
by   use of  mole ratio  of SO3  :  H2SO4 which  is 1:1  the moles of H2SO4  is  also=  6.25  moles

the theoretical  yield of H2SO4 is therefore =  moles /molar  mass
=  6.25  x98=  612.5 grams

%yield  is therefore= 575 g/612 g   x100=  93.9  %
