Ag2S + Al(s) = Al2S3 + Ag(s) (unbalanced)

Answer:

1. 0.97 V

2. Al_(_s_)/Al^+^3~_(_a_q_)~//~Ag^+~_(_a_q_)/Ag_(_s_)

Explanation:

In this case, we can start with the <u>half-reactions</u>:

Ag^+~_(_a_q_)->~Ag_(_s_)

Al_(_s_)~->~Al^+^3~_(_a_q_)

With this in mind we can <u>add the electrons</u>:

Ag^+~_(_a_q_)+~e^-~->~Ag_(_s_)  <u>Reduction</u>

Al_(_s_)~->~Al^+^3~_(_a_q_)+~3e^-~ <u>Oxidation</u>

The reduction potential values for each half-reaction are:

Ag_2S~+~e^-~->~Ag_(_s_)~+~S^-^2~_(_a_q_) - 0.69 V

Al^+^3~_(_a_q_)+~2e^-~->~Al_(_s_) -1.66 V

In the aluminum half-reaction, we have an oxidation reaction, therefore we have to <u>flip</u> the reduction potential value:

Al_(_s_)~->~Al^+^3~+~2e^-~ +1.66 V

Finally, to calculate the overall potential we have to <u>add</u> the two values:

1.66 V - 0.69 V = <u>0.97 V</u>

For the second question, we have to keep in mind that in the cell notation we put the anode (the oxidation half-reaction) in the left and the cathode (the reduction half-reaction) in the right. Additionally, we have to use "//" for the salt bridge, therefore:

Al_(_s_)/Al^+^3~_(_a_q_)~//~Ag^+~_(_a_q_)/~Ag_(_s_)

I hope it helps!

Where does Earth's Internal Energy Come From? *
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

There are three main sources of heat in the deep earth: (1) heat from when the planet formed and accreted, which has not yet been lost; (2) frictional heating, caused by denser core material sinking to the center of the planet; and (3) heat from the decay of radioactive elements.

How far can sound travel through rubber per second?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
Sound waves need to travel through a medium such as a solid, liquid, or gas. The sound waves move through each of these mediums by vibrating the molecules in the matter. The molecules in solids are packed very tightly. Liquids are not packed as tightly as solids. And gases are very loosely packed. The spacing of the molecules enables sound to travel much faster through a solid than a gas. Sound travels about four times faster and farther in water than it does in air. This is why whales can communicate over huge distances in the oceans. Sound waves travel about thirteen times faster in wood than air. They also travel faster on hotter days as the molecules bump into each other more often than when it is cold.

Explain why the coin is able to float on top of the water in this glass.
zubka84 [21]
Surface tension is the result of water molecules pulling inward with a strong attractive force. 
The attractive force brings the molecules on the surface of the water close together.
The attractive force causes the surface of the water to be drawn toward the water molecules beneath the surface. <span>
Since there are no water molecules above the surface, there are uneven forces. This causes surface tension, allowing the coin to float on the water’s surface.</span>

8. What is diabetes?
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Diabetes is a disease that occurs when your blood glucose, also called blood sugar, is too high. Blood glucose is your main source of energy and comes from the food you eat. Insulin, a hormone made by the pancreas, helps glucose from food get into your cells to be used for energy. Sometimes your body doesn’t make enough—or any—insulin or doesn’t use insulin well. Glucose then stays in your blood and doesn’t reach your cells.

Over time, having too much glucose in your blood can cause health problems. Although diabetes has no cure, you can take steps to manage your diabetes and stay healthy.
