What is the value of the equilibrium constant for the reaction between Cr(s) and Cu^2+ (aq) at 25 degree C? Cr(s) + Cu^2+ (q)rig

htarrow Cr^3+ (aq) + Cu(s) If your calculator has overflow issues with this problem, you can use this identity to solve for K: if log(K) = x + y then K = 10^x times 10^y 3 times 10^109 -6 times 10^5 2 times 10^18 1 times 10^2 3 times 10^40

Answer:

3 × 10¹⁰⁹

Explanation:

2Cr (s) → 2Cr³⁺ + 6e⁻        

and,

Ec° for the above reaction = 0.74 V

also,

3Cu²⁺ (aq) + 6e⁻ →   3Cu(s)

and,

Ea° for the above reaction = 0.34 V

Now,

The cell potential, E° = 0.34 + 0.74 = 1.08

E° = \frac{\textup{0.059}}{\textup{n}}\log k

thus,

0.34 = \frac{\textup{0.059}}{\textup{n}}\log k

here, n is the number of electrons exchanged

n = 6

1.08 = \frac{\textup{0.05921}}{\textup{6}}\log k

or

㏒ k = 109.44

taking anti-log both sides

we get

k =  3 × 10¹⁰⁹

Hence, the answer is option (A) 3 × 10¹⁰⁹

4: The shikimate pathway is critically important and found in plants. Discuss reasons why this pathway is so important and even
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Explanation:

For the growth and flourishing of animals Aromatic amino acids are very important, but because of lack of shikimate these amino acids are not synthesized in animals pathway.But this pathway is found in both plants and micro organisms and they have the ability to produce these amino acids as well as some secondary metabolites required in animals.

There are different role played by this pathway in organisms such as;

1) It serve as a source of Tryptophan and phenylalanie which are important aromatic amino acid.

2)Neuroactive substances such as serotonin,epinephrine are biosynthesized as result of the product from the pathway.

3)Alkaloids that's found in plants as well as antibiotics possessed by microbes, which are essential therapeutical in animals are secondary metabolites that is biosynthesized as a result of the activities of this product of this pathway.

4)Shikimate is useful in the synthesizing of 6-Fluoroshikimic acid.

5) The shikimate pathway is important for the synthesis of a plethora of aromatic compounds in both plants and bacteria as well as fungi.

A scientist prepared an aqueous solution of a 0.45 M weak acid. The pH of the solution was 2.72. What is the percentage ionizati
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

0.42%

Explanation:

<em>∵ pH = - log[H⁺].</em>

2.72 = - log[H⁺]

∴ [H⁺] = 1.905 x 10⁻³.

<em>∵ [H⁺] = √Ka.C</em>

∴ [H⁺]² = Ka.C

∴ ka = [H⁺]²/C = (1.905 x 10⁻³)²/(0.45) = 8.068 x 10⁻⁶.

<em>∵ Ka = α²C.</em>

Where, α is the degree of dissociation.

<em>∴ α = √(Ka/C) </em>= √(8.065 x 10⁻⁶/0.45) = <em>4.234 x 10⁻³.</em>

<em>∴ percentage ionization of the acid = α x 100</em> = (4.233 x 10⁻³)(100) = <em>0.4233% ≅ 0.42%.</em>

How does the size of a nanoparticle compare with the size of an atom?
RSB [31]
A nanoparticle is larger than an atom. A nanoparticle is usually made from a few hundred atoms. These  particles range from 1 nanometers to 100 nanometers. On the other hand an atom ranges from 0.1 nanometers to 105 nanometers. Using the sizes above, one can clearly see and understand that an atom is smaller.
