What is the value (in V) of Eºcell for the following reaction? Zn2+ (aq) + Pb (s) → Zn (s) + Pb2+ (aq)

Chemistry

Lisa [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

- 0.63 V.

Explanation:

From the question , the reaction is as follows -

Zn²⁺ (aq) + Pb (s)   →   Zn (s) + Pb²⁺ (aq)

From the above reaction ,

Zn²⁺ is reduced to Zn , as the oxidation state changes from +2 to 0

and ,

Pb is oxidized to Pb²⁺ , as the oxidation state changes from  0 to +2 .

In a cell , the process of oxidation takes place in the Anode , and reduction takes place in Cathode .

Hence , the half cell reaction taking place at anode and cathode is as follows -

Cathode reaction:  Zn²⁺ (aq) +  2e⁻ → Zn (s) ; E⁰ Zn²⁺ /Zn = - 0.76 V.

Anode reaction: Pb (s) → Pb²⁺ (aq) +  2e⁻  ;   E⁰ Pb²⁺ /Pb = - 0.13 V

The  E⁰cell is calculated as the difference in the  E⁰cathode and  E⁰anode .

E⁰cell =  E⁰cathode -  E⁰anode = - 0.76 - (-0.13) = - 0.63 V.

If Lithium and Nitrogen created a bond what would the ratios be?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

There would be three Lithium atoms per one Nitrogen atom.

3:1

Li3N (Lithium Nitride)

Explanation:

Group 15 elements usually have 5 valence electrons, and every atom wants to have a full valence shell of valence electrons. So, nitrogen can get three electrons from each Lithium atom in order to get a full octet.

Consider the following first order decomposition reaction with a half-life of 65 seconds at a given temperature:
katrin [286]

Answer:

130

Explanation:

This is because that 3atm of N2O4 is used up for the 6atm of NO2, so 1 atm N2O4 is left. Resulting in In(1/4).

Between which of these pairs of elements is a covalent bond most likely to form?
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

The correct option here is the first option

Explanation:

Covalent bond is the bond that involves the sharing of electrons between the participating atoms. The electrons (in the outermost shells of the atoms) that are involved this sharing are called the "shared pair" while those electrons (in the outermost shells of the atoms) that are not involved in this sharing are called the "lone pair". Bonding eventually leads to each of the participating atoms achieving it's octet configuration.

Carbon will bind covalently with fluorine (to form carbon tetrafluoride) with each of the electrons on the outermost shell of the carbon been shared covalently with fluorine atoms (that also requires just one electron to achieve it's octet configuration). Thus, at the end, we would have one carbon atom being covalently linked to four flourine atoms.
