What does it mean when a reaction is spontaneous apex?

1 answer:

7 0

A reaction that is spontaneous means that it can produce products without the supply of energy. The total energy from the reactants reached the activation energy that allow the reaction proceed. An example of this is the decay of a diamond into graphite occuring readily.

An electrolytic cell is based upon a nonspontaneous reaction; the Eocell for the reaction is _____.

Likurg_2 [28]

In an electrochemical cell in which the oxidation reaction is nonspontaneous the oxidation will not occur spontaneously at the anode and the reduction will not be spontaneous at the cathode. And according to the law for the calculation of the voltage potential of the electrochemical cell (Ecell):

Ecell = Eox. - Ere. where (Eox. is the potential of the oxidation at the anode and Ere. is the potential of the reduction at the cathode). The standard potential for an electrolytic cell is negative, because of the Ere. which is greater than Eox.

The answer is : less than zero.

PLEASE HELP!! What is the concentration [H3O+] of a solution with a pH of 13.2? Is the solution acidic, basic, or neutral?

Ilya [14]

The concentration of [H3O+] will be 6.3 x $10^{-14}$ M

Mathematically, pH = -log [H+] or -log [H3O+]

With a pH of 13.2:

-log [H3O+] = 13.2

log [H3O+] = -13.2

[H3O+] = 6.3 x $10^{-14}$ M

What is the specific heat capacity of an unknown metal if 75.00 g of the metal absorbs 418.6J of heat and the temperature rises

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity of the unknown metal is 0.223 $\frac{J}{g*C}$

Explanation:

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

There is a direct proportional relationship between heat and temperature. The constant of proportionality depends on the substance that constitutes the body as on its mass, and is the product of the specific heat by the mass of the body. So, the equation that allows calculating heat exchanges is:

Q = c * m * ΔT

where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, made up of a specific heat substance c and where ΔT is the temperature variation.

In this case, you know:

Q= 418.6 J
c= ?
m= 75 g
ΔT= 25 C

Replacing:

418.6 J= c* 75 g* 25 C

Solving:

$c=\frac{418.6 J}{75 g*25 C}$

c= 0.223 $\frac{J}{g*C}$

The specific heat capacity of the unknown metal is 0.223 $\frac{J}{g*C}$

Which statement best describes the properties of covalent compounds?

AnnyKZ [126]

Covalent network. A solid that is extremely hard, that has a very high melting point, and that will not conduct electricity either as a solid or when molten is held together by a continuous three-dimensional network of covalent bonds. Examples include diamond, quartz (SiO 2 ), and silicon carbide (SiC). The electrons are constrained in pairs to a region on a line between the centers of pairs of atoms.
