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.

why the total mass of the products would be less than the total weight of the reactant after a chemical reaction?
Lisa [10]
The best explanation would be that Gases were released during the Chemical reaction, causing a loss of Mass.

Answer:

  • Because<em> alkenes and alkynes</em> are defined as molecules with at least one double (in the case of alkenes) or triple (in the case of alkynes) bond between two carbon atoms, while alkanes have only single bonds between any pair of carbon atoms.

Explanation:

<em>Alkenes</em> and <em>alkynes</em> are unsaturated molecules, because they have, at least, two adjacent carbon atoms bonded together by either a doubler or a triple bond: - C = C -  or - C ≡ C -.

Hence, at least two carbon atoms are needed to form those double or triple bonds, while alkanes have only single bonds. The example of alkane with only one carbon atom is methane: CH₄, which is the most simple alkane.

The most simple alkene is CH₂ = CH₂, and the most simple alkyne is CH≡CH.

As you see, the very definition of alkenes and alkynes forces that those molecules must have at least two carbon atoms.
