The cell potential of a redox reaction occurring in an electrochemical cell under any set of temperature and concentration condi

avanturin [10]

Answer : The actual cell potential of the cell is 0.47 V

Explanation:

Reaction quotient (Q) : It is defined as the measurement of the relative amounts of products and reactants present during a reaction at a particular time.

The given redox reaction is :

$Ni^{2+}(aq)+Zn(s)\rightarrow Ni(s)+Zn^{2+}(aq)$

The balanced two-half reactions will be,

Oxidation half reaction : $Zn\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+2e^-$

Reduction half reaction : $Ni^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Ni$

The expression for reaction quotient will be :

$Q=\frac{[Zn^{2+}]}{[Ni^{2+}]}$

In this expression, only gaseous or aqueous states are includes and pure liquid or solid states are omitted.

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get

$Q=\frac{(0.0141)}{(0.00104)}=13.6$

The value of the reaction quotient, Q, for the cell is, 13.6

Now we have to calculate the actual cell potential of the cell.

Using Nernst equation :

$E_{cell}=E^o_{cell}-\frac{RT}{nF}\ln Q$

where,

F = Faraday constant = 96500 C

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

T = room temperature = 316 K

n = number of electrons in oxidation-reduction reaction = 2 mole

$E^o_{cell}$ = standard electrode potential of the cell = 0.51 V

$E_{cell}$ = actual cell potential of the cell = ?

Q = reaction quotient = 13.6

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

$E_{cell}=0.51-\frac{(8.314)\times (316)}{2\times 96500}\ln (13.6)$

$E_{cell}=0.47V$

Therefore, the actual cell potential of the cell is 0.47 V

A molecule has one carbon-carbon double bond and four monovalent atoms or groups. How many different cis-trans isomers exist for

Lena [83]

There can be two cases

Case 1:

When a molecule has one carbon-carbon double bond and four monovalent atoms or groups in which two atoms on same carbon are different, there will be 2 isomers, one cis and one trans.

Case 2:

When a molecule has one carbon-carbon double bond and four monovalent atoms or groups where both atoms attached to the same carbon are same, there will be no geometrical isomerism.

As based on priority, there will be only two orientations possible , in which same priority atoms are on the same side that is cis and if they are on the opposite side that is trans.

Wine goes bad soon after opening because the ethanol CH3CH2OH dissolved in it reacts with oxygen O2 gas to form water and aqueou

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

We need 0.095 moles of ethanol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Number of moles water = 0.095 moles

Step 2: The balanced equation

CH3CH2OH + O2 ⇒ H2O + CH3COOH

Step 3: Calculate moles of ethanol

For 1 mol ethanol we need 1 mol oxygen to produce 1 mol water and 1 mol acetic acid

For 0.095 moles water, we need 0.095 moles ethanol and 0.095 moles oxygen

We need 0.095 moles of ethanol
