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

What general rule can be followed when choosing a type of solvent for a particular solute
ehidna [41]
General 'rule' - "like dissolves like". The solubility of a solute in a solvent (that is, the extent of the mixing of the solute and solvent species) depends on a balance between the natural tendency for the solute and solvent species to mix and the tendency for a system to have the lowest energy possible.

Hope this helps :p

What would the volume of a gas be at 150c if had of volume of 693 ml at 45 c​
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

T1 = 150°C = (150 + 273.15)K = 423.15K

T2 = 45°C = (45 + 273.15)K = 318K

V1 = 693mL = 693cm³

Applying Charle's law, the volume of a given gas is directly proportional to is temperature provided that pressure remains constant.

V = kT

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

693 / 423.15 = V2 / 318

V2 = (693 * 318) / 423.15 = 520.79cm³

The new volume of the gas is 520.79cm³
