Answer:

1.18 × 10⁷ c

Iron is the anode and zinc is the cathode.

Explanation:

Let's consider the reduction of Zn²⁺.

Zn²⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻ ⇒ Zn(s)

<em>How many coulombs of charge are needed to produce 61.2 mol of solid zinc?</em>

<em />

We can establish the following relations:

  • When 2 moles of electrons circulate, 1 mol of Zn is produced.
  • 1 mole of electrons have a charge of 96468 c (Faraday's constant).

Then, for 61.2 mol of Zn:

61.2molZn.\frac{2mole^{-} }{1molZn} .\frac{96468c}{1mole^{-}} =1.18 \times 10^{7} c

<em>Identify the anode and cathode when plating an iron nail with zinc.</em>

The anode is where the oxidation takes place and the cathode is where the reduction takes place.

Anode (oxidation): Fe(s) ⇒ Fe²⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻

Cathode (reduction): Zn²⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻ ⇒ Zn(s)

Arrange the following types of photons of electromagnetic radiation in order of decreasing energy: red light, radio, x-rays, γ-r
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Decreasing order is as follows:

γ-rays > x-rays > red light > infrared > radio

Explanation:

Energy and wavelength are inversely related with each other.

In other words, energy decreases as the wavelength of electromagnetic radiation increases.

Order of wavelength for the given radiations are as follows:

Radio > infrared > red light > x-rays > γ-rays

So, order of the energy will be reverse.

γ-rays > x-rays > red light > infrared > radio

As a science major, you are assigned to the "Atomic Dorm" at college. The first floor has one suite with one bedroom that has a
lidiya [134]

Explanation:

A.

The first student will be on the lower bunk on the first floor because 1. They want on the lowest available floor and 2. They want to be in a lower bunk if available.

B.

7 students are in the TOP bunks because 1. They want on the lowest available floor and 2. They want to be in a lower bunk if available. Therefore, all the rooms up till the third floor (Remember, third floor has 3 suites), so the first floor is filled - 1 person on the top bunk, 2 floor is filled- 4 persons and the third floor; the first suite is filled - 1 person and the second suite is a little partially filled- 1 person.

C.

Following the criteria 1, 2 and 3, the 21st student occupies the third suite on the third floor because all the floors (1 and 2) are occupied so the third suite on the third floor is still vacant.

D.

From the criteria there are therefore 10 persons at the TOP bunk. All the rooms up till the third floor are filled, so the first floor is filled - 1 person on the top bunk, second floor is filled (2 suites) - 4 persons and the third floor; the first suite and second suite is filled - 4 persons; the thirs suite has 6 persons present so 1 person is at the top bunk.

A chemist prepares a solution of silver(II) oxide by measuring out 0.0013 of silver(II) oxide into a 100 mL volumetric flask and
azamat

Answer:

1.3x10⁻⁸ mol/L

Explanation:

<em>0.0013μmol, Calculate concentration in mol/L</em>

<em />

To obtain concentration in mol/L we need to convert the μmoles to moles and mL to liters:

<em>Moles silver(II) oxide:</em>

0.0013μmol × (1mol / 1x10⁶μmol) = 1.3x10⁻⁹ moles

<em>Liters solution:</em>

100mL * (1L / 1000mL) = 0.1L

That means concentration in mol/L is:

1.3x10⁻⁹ moles / 0.1L =

<h3>1.3x10⁻⁸ mol/L</h3>

Calculate the following question​
valkas [14]

Answer:

[H₃O⁺] → 0.063 M

Explanation:

To determine the pH, our formula is:

- log [H₃O⁺]

To determine the [H⁺] we have to apply the inverse function

10^-pH = [H₃O⁺]

10⁻¹'²⁰ = [H₃O⁺] → 0.063 M
