Answer:

0.46 V

Explanation:

The emf for the cell is given by:

Eº cell = Eº oxidation + Eº reduction

From the  given balanced chemical equation, we can deduce that Fe²⁺ has been oxidized to Fe³⁺, and O reduced  from 0 to negative 2, according to the half cell reactions:

4Fe²⁺  ⇒ Fe³⁺ + 4e⁻           oxidation

O₂ + 4H⁺ + 4 e⁻ ⇒ 2 H₂O   reduction

From reference tables for the standard reduction potential, we get

Eº red Fe³⁺ / Fe²⁺   Eºred = 0.77 V  

Eº red O₂ / H₂O      Eºred = 1.23 V

Now all we need to do is change the sign of Eº reduction for the species being oxidized ( Fe²⁺ ) and add it to Eº reduction  O₂:

Eº cell =   Eº oxidation + Eº reduction = - (0.77 V ) + 1.23 V = 0.46 V

Q1. -------- a specific way that a quantity may increase over time

1. Exponential growth

2. Biotic

3. Trait

4. Succession

Answer:

1. Exponential growth

Explanation:

Exponential growth is a specific way that a quantity may increase over time. The instantaneous rate of change of a quantity with respect to time is proportional to the quantity itself. When growth becomes more rapid in relation to the growing total number, then it becomes exponential.

Example: Latest updates of COVID-19. For today, the number of infected people cases from COVID-19 is 190,000. By observing the graph, to reach 100,000 the number of infected patient cases, it took 3 months and the other 90,000 patients were infected in just 15 days.

Q2. ------- is the inherent inclination of a living organism towards a particular complex behavior.

1. Abiotic

2. Biotic

3. Innate behavior

Answer:

3. Innate behavior

Explanation:

Innate behavior is behavior that occurs naturally in all members of a species. These behaviors do not have to be learned or practiced.

Example: When a human baby born, he already knows how to suck mother breast to get milk. He never learned before. As he grew up, he knows how to grasp things.

3. Students measured the mass of the reactants and products for a combustion reaction they observed.
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

A. Students made a measurement error, because ending with more products is impossible.

Explanation:

The law of conversation of matter tells us that in a chemical reaction, matter is never created or destroyed, it's simply converted from one form to another. So the mass of reactants should always equal the mass of the products in a chemical reaction. If there is excess mass in the product, the students have made an error of some kind.
