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

Bromine, a liquid at room temperature has a boiling point of 58 degrees celsius and a melting point at -7.2 degree celsius bromi
ra1l [238]

Hello!


Bromine can be classified as a pure substance.


Why?


Bromine is an element with atomic number 35 on group 17 of the Periodic Table. That's the first sign that shows us that it is a pure substance.


But the fact that it has a clear and defined boiling and melting point is a sign that we are in the presence of a pure substance. Pure substances are characterized by defined boiling and melting points.


Mixtures usually have a range of temperatures in which they melt and boil.


Have a nice day!

Hydrogen is used as a rocket fuel because it is very light and reacts explosively and completely with oxygen. For the combustion
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

1. K<10−3

Explanation:

Equilibrium Constant is an expression which involves the concentration of the product divided by the concentration of the reactant molecules.

However the concentration of the pure liquid and pure solid is regarded as 1.

Equilibrium expression for the equation 2H2(g)+O2(g)⇌2H2O(g)

Equilibrium Constant = [H2O]^2/[H2]^2 x [O2]

Since H2O is a pure liquid, its concentration = 1

There fore;

Equilibrium Constant = 1/[H2]^2 x [O2]

This shows that the Equilibrium Constant of the equation will be less than 1 and greater than 0.
