<span>We can use rocks to determine if the animals from to day have changed from the past.
Rocks also help us know if rivers once flowed through an area.
We use them to find out what type of animals live then that are extinct now.</span>

What is the standard electrode potential for a galvanic cell constructed in the appropriate way from these two half-cells?

Explanation:

Look up the reduction potential for each cell in question on a table of standard electrode potential like this one from Chemistry LibreTexts. [1]

The standard reduction potential

E

θ

resembles the electrode's strength as an oxidizing agent and equivalently its tendency to get reduced. The reduction potential of a Platinum-Hydrogen Electrode under standard conditions (

298

l

K

,

1.00

l

kPa

) is defined as

0

l

V

for reference. [2]

A cell with a high reduction potential indicates a strong oxidizing agent- vice versa for a cell with low reduction potentials.

Two half cells connected with an external circuit and a salt bridge make a galvanic cell; the half-cell with the higher

E

θ

and thus higher likelihood to be reduced will experience reduction and act as the cathode, whereas the half-cell with a lower

E

θ

will experience oxidation and act the anode.

E

θ

(

Therefore in this galvanic cell, the

Ni

2

+

/

Ni

half-cell will experience reduction and act as the cathode and the

Mg

+

the anode.

The standard cell potential of a galvanic cell equals the standard reduction potential of the cathode minus that of the anode. That is:

Indicating that connecting the two cells will generate a potential difference of

+

2.115

l

across the two cells.

Describe the displacement method for measuring the volume of an object
jeyben [28]
<span>Volume is a measure of the amount of space an object takes up. When a cylinder is submerged in the water it pushes water out of the way. If you measure the amount the water level increases, you can find the volume of the water pushed out of the way. </span>

(01.01 LC)
Usimov [2.4K]

The answer would be "false" or the second option. A opinion is what you think on a certain subject and science is full of facts and opinions of other scientist which would mean your using someone else for your opinion just remember opinions is what you think about a subject and you can't use science for your opinion.

Hope this helps!
