Answer:

Ka= [H+][But-]/H[Hbut]

Let k moles of H+ be formed

1.52*10^-5=k^2/0.004-k

K^2=0.004*1.52*10^-5-1.52*10^-5k

K^2- 1.52*10^-5k-6.08*10^-8=0

Solving this quadratic equation.

K=7.6*10^-6

PH=-log(7.6*10^-6)=5.2

In which system does a spontaneous redox reaction produce electrical energy?
Vladimir [108]
Had to look for the options and here is my answer.
When we say that a redox reaction is spontaneous, this would mean that there is a formation of positive voltage <span>across the electrodes of a voltaic cell. Therefore, the system that this kind of reaction produces electrical energy is in a GALVANIC CELL. Hope this helps.</span>

1) Ions are formed between positive or negative charge.
RSB [31]

Answer:

1. No 1 looks like a statement and not a question.

2.Ionic compounds are usually formed from the transfer of electrons from metals to Non metals. All others are Ionic compounds except HCl(Its a covalent compound).

3. The Formula would be K2S. Exchange of Radicals takes place. Sulphur has a -2 charge and potassium has a +1 charge. when they both exchange radicals... The compound is K2S.

4.Group 1 elements have only 1 electron in their outermost shell.

5. its charge will be +1 because it loses the 1 electron in its outermost shell.

6.Group 2 elements have 2electrons in their Valence shell.

7.Already answered. same as No 5.

8. Group 16;Also known as group 6. They have only 6 electrons in their outermost shell.

9.When they want to become stable... they acquire 2electrons to complete their octet... so they possess a -2 charge by forming an ion.

10. i)They form ions when Dissolve in solutions

ii) They are hard and brittle

iii) They have high boiling points
