Answer:

b. + 1.01 V

Explanation:

Sn(s) ⇒ Sn2+ + 2e⁻     Eox = 0.14 V

Ag₊ + e⁻⇒                   Ered = 0.80 V

_______________________________

Sn(s) + Ag⁺(aq) ⇒ Sn2⁺(aq)  + Ag(s)    Eºcell = 0.14 V + 0.80 V =  0.94 V

This problem is solved by using the Nernst equation:

Ecell = Eºcell -  (0.0592 / n) log Q

since we are not at standard condition given that the concentrations are not at  1 M. So we will calculate  Q first

Q =  ( Sn²⁺ ) / ( Ag⁺) = 0.022/2.7 = 0.0081

Ecell = 0.94 V -(0.0592/2) x log (0.0081) = 1.00 V

What would you use if you needed to determine the density of an object
IrinaVladis [17]
In order to find the density of an object, you need to know the mass of the object and the volume.
That is why the unit of density is kg/m3.
Hope it helps
