Answer:

A) E° = 4.40 V

B) ΔG° = -8.49 × 10⁵ J

Explanation:

Let's consider the following redox reaction.

2 Li(s) +Cl₂(g) → 2 Li⁺(aq) + 2 Cl⁻(aq)

We can write the corresponding half-reactions.

Cathode (reduction): Cl₂(g) + 2 e⁻ → 2 Cl⁻(aq)      E°red = 1.36 V

Anode (oxidation):  2 Li(s) → 2 Li⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻         E°red = -3.04

<em>A) Calculate the cell potential of this reaction under standard reaction conditions.</em>

The standard cell potential (E°) is the difference between the reduction potential of the cathode and the reduction potential of the anode.

E° = E°red, cat - E°red, an = 1.36 V - (-3.04 V) 4.40 V

<em>B) Calculate the free energy ΔG° of the reaction.</em>

We can calculate Gibbs free energy (ΔG°) using the following expression.

ΔG° = -n.F.E°

where,

n are the moles of electrons transferred

F is Faraday's constant

ΔG° = - 2 mol × (96468 J/V.mol) × 4.40 V = -8.49 × 10⁵ J

How many grams of solute are needed to order to prepare 100.00 mL of a 0.1000 M solution of a compound with a molecular weight o
Troyanec [42]

The grams of solute are required.

The mass of solute is 3.5 g

c =  Molarity = 0.1 M

M = Molar mass = 350 g/mol

V = Volume of solution = 100 mL = 0.1 L

n = Number of moles

m = Mass of solute

Molarity is given by

c=\dfrac{n}{V}\\\Rightarrow n=cV\\\Rightarrow n=0.1\times 0.1\\\Rightarrow n=0.01\ \text{moles}

Molar mass is given by

M=\dfrac{m}{n}\\\Rightarrow m=Mn\\\Rightarrow m=350\times 0.01\\\Rightarrow m=3.5\ \text{g}

The mass of solute is 3.5 g
