An electrochemical cell is constructed using two half-cells: Al(s) in Al(NO2)3(aq) and Cu(s) in Cu(NO3)2(aq). The two half cells

are connected by a KNO3 salt bridge and two copper wires from the electrodes to a voltmeter. Based on their respective standard reduction potentials, which half-cell is the cathode?

Answer:

Cu(s) in Cu(NO₃)₂(aq)

Explanation:

The standard reduction potential (E°) is the energy necessary to reduce the atom in a redox reaction. When an atom reduces it gains electrons from other than oxides. As higher is E°, easily it will reduce. The substance that reduces is at the cathode of a cell, where the electrons go to, and the other that oxides are at the anode of the cell.

The standard reduction potentials from Al(s) and Cu(s) are, respectively, -1.66V and +0.15V, so the half-cell of Cu(s) in Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) is the cathode.

nasty-shy [4]
Intermolecular forces are forces of interaction that are operative between two different molecules. They are of follow types
1) Dipole- dipole interaction
2) Hydrogen bonds
3) vander Waal's forces

Depending upon the polarity and constitution molecule above forces are operable.

for instance, in case of ammonia, Hydrogen bonds exist because hydrogen atom is attached to electronegative element i.e. N

HCl and CO are polar molecules, so dipole-dipole interaction is operative in these molecules.

Finally in case of CO2, vander Waal's forces of interaction is operable because it is a non-polar molecule.

ankoles [38]

In Lewis dot structures, you draw the atom in the center and then surround the atom with its valence electrons. The Lewis structure for O is as shown in the attached diagram.

<h3>What is the Lewis structure of O ?</h3>

Lewis Structure of an atom of oxygen contains 6 electrons in the valence shell. Four valence electrons exist in lone pairs. It implies that oxygen atom must participate in two single bonds or one double bond in order to have an octet configuration.

A simplified representation of the valence shell electrons in a molecule  is called Lewis Structure. It shows how electrons are arranged around individual atoms in the molecule.

When circumstances are right, most materials undergo a process called thermal expansion. Which statement best describes the caus
harina [27]

Answer: Matter is heated, and its particles spread out more

Explanation:

Thermal expansion occurs when there's an expansion of an object or material or when an object becomes bigger because of a rise in its temperature. This brings about the faster movement of the heated molecules and the atoms spreading out.

Therefore, the cause and effect of thermal expansion will be that when matter is heated, and its particles spread out more.
