Which statement is true about oxidation and reduction in an electrochemical cell?

2 answers:

8 0

The answer is (3) oxidation occurs at the anode and reduction occurs at the cathode. That's because the oxidation reaction will loss electrons and reduction reaction will gain electrons.

Answer : The correct option is, (3) Oxidation occurs at the anode and reduction occurs at the cathode.

Explanation :

Electrochemical cell : It is a type of device which is used to convert the chemical energy into electrical energy during the redox reaction.

In the electrochemical cell, there are two electrodes. The electrode on which the oxidation takes place is called the anode (or negative pole) and the electrode on which the reduction takes place is called the cathode (or positive pole). This cell is connected by the salt bridge.

In the external circuit, the electrons flow from the anode (negative pole) to cathode (positive pole) through the voltmeter.

In the inner circuit, the ions flow through the salt bridge.

Hence, the correct option is, (3) Oxidation occurs at the anode and reduction occurs at the cathode.

A stable subatomic particle known by the symbol for "proton"

e elementary charge, p, H+, or 1H+ having a positive electric charge. Its mass is 1,836 times greater than an electron's mass and just a little bit less than that of a neutron (the proton–electron mass ratio). "Nucleons" refers to protons and neutrons together, each of which has a mass of roughly one atomic mass unit (particles present in atomic nuclei).

Each atom. has a nucleus. that contains one or more protons. In order to keep the atomic electrons bound, they offer the central attractive electrostatic force. An element's defining characteristic, known as the atomic number, is the number of protons in the nucleus (represented by the symbol Z)

How many grams of H2O are needed to produce 150 g of Mg(OH)2? (Molar mass: H2O = 18.02 g/mol; Mg(OH)2 = 58.33 g/mol )

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

92.6

Explanation:

6 mol x 18.02 g of H2o --> 3 mol x 58.33 g Mg(OH)2

108.12 g of h2o --> 174.99 of Mg(OH)2

g of H2O is 150 g of Mg(OH)2

150g x 108.12g / 174.99 =

If one were asked to choose between paper or plastic which would be chosen and which one would benefit the environment?

vekshin1

It would be plastic Becaus we can recreate things with plastic and other things that are recyclable. Since,we mostly cut down trees everyday for paper,not knowing that we are wasting natural resources, and destroying animal homes and food.
