Cell reaction overall is Zn(s)+2H+(aq)→Zn²+(aq)+H2(g).
The half-reaction of oxidation is Zn(s)→Zn²+(aq)+2E- and E°zn2+/zn=0.76v
Half reaction reduction  2H+(aq)+2∈-→H2(g) and E°H+/H2+=0.00v
Cell potential is E°cell=E°cathode-E°anode
=E°H+/H2e-E°zn2+/zn
=0.00v-(-0.76v)
=0.76v
Nernst equation
Ecell = -0.059W/N log [zn²+]PH2/[Zn][H+]²
Ecell = 0.66v
[zn²+]=1.0M
1=[Zn]
PH2=1atm
[H+]=?
n = number of moles of electrons transfered in the cell=2mol
Ecell=E°cell -0.059W/n log [Zn²+]/[Zn][H+]²
0.66v = 0.76 - 0.059W/2 log 1.0×1.0/1.0×[H+]²
0.059W/2 log 1/[H+]² = 0.76v-0.66v = 0.10v
log 1/[H+]² =0.10v×2/0.059W =3.4
-2log [H+] = 3.4
log [H+] = 1.7
[H+] =10-n
=0.020
=2.0×10-²M
The concenrtation in cathodic compartments is 2.0×10-²M

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

A crystalline solid

Explanation:

Most solids form with a regular arrangement of their particles because the overall attractive interactions between particles are maximized, and the total intermolecular energy is minimized, when the particles pack in the most efficient manner. The regular arrangement at an atomic level is often reflected at a macroscopic level.  Liquids dont use to have this kind of arrangements or shapes.

What is the total mass of Hydrogen in each of the molecules?
frutty [35]

Explanation:

a) In 1 mole of methane there are 4 moles of hydrogen atom

Atomic mass of 1 mole of hydrogen atom = 1 g

Mass of hydrogen in 1 mole of methane = 4 × 1 g = 4 g

b) In 1 mole of chloroform there are 1 mole of hydrogen atom

Atomic mass of 1 mole of hydrogen atom = 1 g

Mass of hydrogen in 1 mole of methane = 1× 1 g = 1 g

c) In 1 mole of C_{12}H_{10}O_{16} there are 10 moles of hydrogen atom

Atomic mass of 1 mole of hydrogen atom = 1 g

Mass of hydrogen in 1 mole of C_{12}H_{10}O_{16} = 10 × 1 g = 10 g

d)In 1 mole of CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2CH_3 there are 12 moles of hydrogen atom.

CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2CH_3=C_5H_{12}

Atomic mass of 1 mole of hydrogen atom = 1 g

Mass of hydrogen in 1 mole of CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2CH_3 = 12 × 1 g = 12 g

What did Ernest Rutherford s gold foil experiment demonstrate about atoms?
mote1985 [20]
Rutherford performed gold foil experiment to understand that how negative and positive particles could Co exist in an atom. He bombarded alpha particles on a 0.00004 cm thick gold foil.

He proposed a planetary model of the atom and concluded following results and demonstrated that,
1. An atom produces a line spectrum.
2. An Electron revolves around the nucleus without any orbits.
3. Since most of the particles passed through the foil undeflected it means that most of the volume occupied by an atom is empty.
4. An Atom as a whole is neutral.
5. The deflection of few particles on the foil suggested that there is center of positive particles in an atom called the nucleus of the atom.
6. The complete rebounce of few particles on the gold foil suggested that the nucleus is very dense and hard.

Does adding 1 mol of NaCl to 1 kg of water lower the vapor pressure of water to the same extent, a lesser extent, or a greater e
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Adding 1 mol of NaCl to 1 kg of water lower the vapor pressure of water <em><u>to the same extent</u></em>  by adding 1 mol of C_06H_{12}O_6 to 1 kg of water.

Explanation:

1) Moles of NaCl ,n_1=1 mol

Mass of water = m= 1 kg = 1000 g

Moles of water = n_2=\frac{1000 g}{18 g/mol}=55.55 mol

Vapor pressure of the solution = p

Vapor pressure of the pure solvent that is water = p_o=17.5 Torr

Mole fraction of solute(NaCl)= \chi_1=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}

\frac{p_o-p}{p_o}=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}

\frac{17.5 Torr-p}{17.5 Torr}=\frac{1 mol}{1 mol+55.55 mol}

p=17.19 Torr

The vapor pressure for the NaCl solution at 17.19 Torr.

2) Moles of sucrose ,n_1=1mol

Mass of water = m  = 1 kg = 1000 g

Moles of water = n_2=\frac{1000 g}{18 g/mol}=55.55 mol

Vapor pressure of the solution = p'

Vapor pressure of the pure solvent that is water = p_o=17.5 Torr

Mole fraction of solute ( glucose)= \chi_1=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}

\frac{p_o-p}{p_o}=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}

\frac{17.5 Torr-p}{17.5 Torr}=\frac{1 mol}{1 mol+55.55 mol}

p'=17.19 Torr

The vapor pressure for the glucose solution at 17.19 Torr.

p = p' = 17.19 Torr

Adding 1 mol of NaCl to 1 kg of water lower the vapor pressure of water to the same extent  by adding 1 mol of C_06H_{12}O_6 to 1 kg of water.
