Under standard-state conditions, which of the following species is the best reducing agent? a. Ag+ b. Pb c. H2 d. Ag e. Mg2+

eimsori [14]

Answer: The correct answer is Option b.

Explanation:

Reducing agents are defined as the agents which help the other substance to get reduced and itself gets oxidized. They undergo oxidation reaction.

$X\rightarrow X^{n+}+ne^-$

For determination of reducing agents, we will look at the oxidation potentials of the substance. Oxidation potentials can be determined by reversing the standard reduction potentials.

For the given options:

Option a: $Ag^+$

This ion cannot be further oxidized because +1 is the most stable oxidation state of silver.

Option b: $Pb$

This metal can easily get oxidized to $Pb^{2+}$ ion and the standard oxidation potential for this is 0.13 V

$Pb\rightarrow Pb^{2+}+2e^-;E^o_{(Pb/Pb^{2+})}=+0.13V$

Option c: $H_2$

This metal can easily get oxidized to $H^{+}$ ion and the standard oxidation potential for this is 0.0 V

$H_2\rightarrow 2H^++2e^-;E^o_{(H_2/H^{+})}=0.0V$

Option d: $Ag$

This metal can easily get oxidized to $Ag^{+}$ ion and the standard oxidation potential for this is -0.80 V

$Ag\rightarrow Ag^{+}+e^-;E^o_{(Ag/Ag^{+})}=-0.80V$

Option e: $Mg^{2+}$

This ion cannot be further oxidized because +2 is the most stable oxidation state of magnesium.

By looking at the standard oxidation potential of the substances, the substance having highest positive $E^o$ potential will always get oxidized and will undergo oxidation reaction. Thus, considered as strong reducing agent.

From the above values, the correct answer is Option b.

At its critical point, ammonia has a density of 0.235 g cm23. You have a special thickwalled glass tube that has a 10.0mm outs

salantis [7]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{69.3 mg}}$

Explanation:

1. Volume of sealed tube

Assume the sealed tube is a right circular cylinder in which the cap and the base are also 4.20 mm thick.

Its outside dimensions are 155 mm long × 10.0 mm diameter.

Its inside dimensions are

h = 155 mm - 2 × 4.20 mm = 146.6 mm

r = 5.0 mm - 4.20 mm = 0.8 mm

V = πr²h = π(0.8)²× 146.6 mm³ = 294.8 mm³ = 0.2948 cm³

2. Calculate the mass of NH₃

$\begin{array}{rcl}\text{Density} & = & \dfrac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}\\\\\rho & = &\dfrac{m}{V}\\\\0.235 \text{ g$\cdot$ cm}^{-3} & = & \dfrac{m}{\text{0.2948 cm}^{3}}\\\\m & = & \text{0.0693 g}\\& = & \textbf{69.3 mg}\\\end{array}\\\text{You must seal $\large \boxed{\textbf{69.3 mg}}$ of ammonia in the tube.}$
