Explanation:
The standard cell potential at 298 K is given by;
E°cathode - E°anode
Hence;
E°cell = 0.34 V - (-0.76 V)
E°cell = 0.34 V + 0.76 V
E°cell = 1.1 V
To reduce Zn^2+ to Zn then Zn must be the cathode, hence;
E°cell = (-0.76 V) - 0.34 V
E°cell = -1.1 V
Answer:
<h2>2. H2O < CH3OH < CH3CH2OH < C9H20</h2>Explanation:
Decane is a hydrocarbon so it is a non-polar molecule. Non-polar molecules are soluble in non-polar molecules and polar molecules are soluble in polar molecules. Water is a polar molecule so it is least soluble in decane molecule and is a non-polar molecule so it is most soluble in decane molecule. Methanol and ethanol are the derivatives of hydrocarbon so they have more solubility than water but less solubility than nonane molecules.
