What is the voltage of a galvanic cell made with zinc (zn) and aluminum (al)?

Chemistry

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

How many grams of ice at -13 deg C must be added to 711 grams of water that is initially at a temperature of 87 deg C to produce
Basile [38]

Answer:

The answer to your question is m = 4.7 kg

Explanation:

Data

Ice                                   Water

mass = ?                          mass = 711 g

T₁ = -13°C                         T₁ = 87°C

T₂ = 10°C                         T₂ = 10°C

Ch = 2090 J/kg°K          Cw = 4180 J/kg°K

Process

1.- Convert temperature to kelvin

T₁ = 273 + (-13) = 260°K

T₁ water = 87 + 273 = 360 °K

T₂ = 10 + 273 = 283°K

2.- Write the equation of interchange of heat

                 - Heat lost = Heat absorbed

               - mwCw(T₂ - T₁) = miCi(T₂ - T₁)

-Substitution

              - 0.711(4180)(10 - 87) = m(2090)(10 - (-13))

- Simplification

                            228842.46 = 48070m

                            m = 228842.46/48070

-Result

                            m = 4.7 kg

What is the mass of silver in 4.3g AgNO3?
gregori [183]
4.22 grams.
1. First find out how much AgNO3 weighs with one mole (107.87 g Ag + 14.007 g N + 48 g O = 169.89 grams)
2. Find the percent of Ag you have. So, (107.87 g/mol Ag)/(169.89 g/mol AgNO3)= 0.63 * 100 = 63%.
3. If you have 6.7 grams total, you know 63% of it is going to be silver, so just multiply 6.7 grams by .63 and you get 4.22 g Ag
