Weathering breaks down rock and other material
Answer:
copper metal is a product of the cell reaction.
Explanation:
In writing the line notation of a cell reaction, we ought to recall that the anode is placed at the left hand side of the notation while the cathode is placed at the right hand side of the notation.
If we look at the line notation shown in the question, we will realize that the Cu2+ (aq) | Cu(s) half cell is the cathode and that copper metal is the product of the reaction as shown by the notation.
Answer:
(a) 77.9 g/mol
(b) 3.18 g / L
Explanation:
<u>(a)</u> We need to use the ideal gas law, which states: PV = nRT, where P is the pressure, V is the volume, n is the moles, R is the gas constant, and T is the temperature in Kelvins.
Notice that we don't have moles; we instead have the mass. Remember, though that moles can be written as m/M, where m is the mass and M is the molar mass. So, we can replace n in the equation with m/M, or 21.3/M. The components we now have are:
- P: 0.880 atm
- V: 7.73 Litres
- n: m/M = 21.3 g / M
- R: 0.08206
- T: 30.00°C + 273 = 303 K
Plug these in:
PV = nRT
(0.880)(7.73) = (21.3/M)(0.08206)(303)
Solve for M:
M = 77.9 g/mol
<u>(b)</u> The equation for the molar mass is actually:
M = (dRT)/P, where d is the density
We have all the components except d, so plug them in:
77.9 = (d * 0.08206 * 298) / 1
Solve for d:
d = 3.18 g / L
