‘Which reaction would most likely require the use of an inert electrode?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Airida [17]3 years ago

An inert electrode is made up of non reactive metals like Platinum

An inert is electrode is required in one of the half cells or both the cells if there is no solid conducting metal in either half reaction. Or we can say that if in any half reaction neither product nor reactant is in solid phase.

From the given equations it is clear that

a) in first cell we have Cu and Ag in solid phase in either side

b) In second reaction the iron is in aqueous phase on both the side of reactant and product

so for reduction of iron or in cathodic half cell we need inert electrode [which does not participate in reaction]

Hence answer is

Mg(s)+2Fe^{+3}(aq)-->2Fe^{+2}(aq)+Mg^{+2}(aq)

c) in third reaction Zn and Sn are in solid phase in either side

d) in fourth reaction Al and Ni are in solid phase in either side

Answer:

In atomic physics, the Bohr model or Rutherford–Bohr model, presented by Niels Bohr and Ernest Rutherford in 1913, is a system consisting of a small, dense nucleus surrounded by orbiting electrons—similar to the structure of the Solar System, but with attraction provided by electrostatic forces in place of gravity.

Write a net ionic equation to show that hydroiodic acid, hi, behaves as an acid in water.
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

HI(aq) + H₂O(ℓ) ⟶ H₃O⁺(aq) + I⁻(aq)

Explanation:

The HI donates a proton to the water, converting it to a hydronium ion

HI(aq) + H₂O(ℓ) ⟶ H₃O⁺(aq) + I⁻(aq)

Thus, the HI is behaving like a Brønsted acid.
