Answer & explanation:
Summary on electrochemical cells and redox reactions:
Electrochemical cells (or batteries) can be defined as devices capable of transforming chemical energy into electrical energy through spontaneous reactions of redox, in which electron transfer occurs.
Redox it is a chemical reaction in which there is the occurrence of oxidation and reduction of atoms of substances (chemical species) present in the process.
<u>Oxidation</u> is the loss of electrons by an atom of a chemical species, while <u>reduction</u> is the gain of electrons by an atom of a chemical species.
Thus, during an oxirreduction reaction, electrons move from the species that loses them towards the species that will receive them. This "movement" results in the formation of an electric current (or electrical energy) as occurs with batteries, for example.
<span>The alkali metal atom forms a +1 ion, while the alkaline earth metal atom forms a +2 ion. hope this helps</span>
Answer:
U= 238g/mol
U2O5= 556g/mol
Explanation:
Since U= 238
O=16
U3O5= 2(238)+3(16)=556g/mol
Answer:
b. Its concentration is half that of the chloride ion
Explanation:
As the calcium chloride formula is CaCl2
CaCl2 <--> Ca + 2 Cl-
