From the reduction standard potentials;
The emf of Zinc = -0.76 V
and the emf of Aluminium = -1.66 V
In a galvanic cell the component with lower standard reduction potential gets oxidized and that it is added to the anode compartment. 
Therefore. the voltage of a galvanic cell made with zinc and aluminium will be;
Voltage =Ered- Eoxd
             = -0.76 - (-1.66)
             = 0.9 V

Answer : The voltage of galvanic cell made with zinc and aluminum is, 0.90V

Explanation :

We are taking the value of standard reduction potential form the standard table.

E^0_{[Al^{3+}/Al]}=-1.66V

E^0_{[Zn^{2+}/Zn]}=-0.76V

In this cell, the component that has lower standard reduction potential gets oxidized and that is added to the anode compartment. The second forms the cathode compartment.

The half oxidation-reduction reaction will be :

Oxidation : Al+3e^-\rightarrow Al^{3+}       E^0_{[Al/Al^{3+}]}=1.66V

Reduction : Zn^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Zn       E^0_{[Zn^{2+}/Zn]}=-0.76V

The expression for standard cell is,

E^0{cell}=E^0{Anode}+E^0{Cathode}

E^0=E^0_{[Al/Al^{3+}}+E^0_{[Zn^{2+}/Zn]}

E^0=1.66V+(-0.76V)

E^0=0.90V

Therefore, the voltage of galvanic cell made with zinc and aluminum is, 0.90 V

Draw the Lewis structure for the polyatomic formate anion. Be sure to include all resonance structures that satisfy the octet ru
givi [52]

Answer:

Lewis structure of polyatomic formate anion.

Explanation:

To draw Lewis structure for any chemical species,

1)Count the total number of valence electrons present in it.

This can be obtained by adding valence electrons of each constituent atom.

2)Arrange those valence electrons in such a way that each atom should attain eight electrons around it to satisfy octet theory.

The structure of formate ion and its Lewis structure are shown below:

HCOO- is the formate ion.

It has total:

1+4+6+6+1 = 18 valence electrons.

Since, hydrogen has one, carbon has four and oxygen has six valence electrons and the charge of the anion is one.

Arrange this 18 electrons in such a way that each atom should get 8 electrons around it.

Resonance structures of formate ion:
