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

A gas has a volume of 5.00 L at 0°C. What final temperature, in degrees Celsius, is needed to change the volume of the gas to ea
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

A = -213.09°C

B = 15014.85 °C

C = -268.37°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume of gas = 5.00 L

Initial temperature = 0°C  (273 K)

Final volume = 1100 mL, 280 L, 87.5 mL

Final temperature = ?

Solution:

Formula:

The given problem will be solve through the Charles Law.

According to this law, The volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume  

T₂ = Final temperature

Conversion of mL into L.

Final volume = 1100 mL/1000 = 1.1 L

Final volume =  87.5 mL/1000 = 0.0875 L

Now we will put the values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

T₂ = V₂T₁ / V₁

T₂ = 1.1 L × 273 K / 5.00 L

T₂ = 300.3 L.K / 5.00 K

T₂ = 60.06 K

60.06 K - 273 = -213.09°C

2)

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

T₂ = V₂T₁ / V₁

T₂ = 280 L × 273 K / 5.00 L

T₂ = 76440 L.K / 5.00 K

T₂ = 15288 K

15288 K - 273 = 15014.85 °C

3)

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

T₂ = V₂T₁ / V₁

T₂ = 0.0875 L × 273 K / 5.00 L

T₂ = 23.8875 L.K / 5.00 K

T₂ = 4.78 K

4.78 K - 273 = -268.37°C

Which would most likely be joined by an ionic bond?
KATRIN_1 [288]
An ionic bond is composed of a cation and anion, which are charged ions. You cannot have atoms with ionic bonds, because there is no opposite attraction between charges due to atoms having a net nuclear charge of zero. Therefore, a cation and anion would most likely be joined by an ionic bond.
