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

Rank the metals from most reactive (1) to least reactive (3) silver, strontium, and technetium
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

1 = strontium

2 = technetium

3 = silver

Explanation:

Strontium is present in 2 group of periodic table. It is alkaline earth metal. It is most reactive element and can not found free in nature. it  is insoluble in water but react with water and form strontium hydroxide and hydrogen gas is also produced. It is radioactive element.

It is similar to the calcium and can incorporated into bones. The food rich with strontium is used to avoid the osteoporosis. It is found in leafy vegetables, grains, sea foods etc.

In given series strontium is highest in reactivity then technetium, while the technetium is more reactive than silver. The silver is less reactive as compared to both given elements.

Express scientific notation 12 thousandth
Sever21 [200]
12 thousandth is the same as 0.012, so to put something in scientific notation you move the decimal point to the left or right until it is between the first two numbers. So:

Moving the decimal for 0.012 to between the first two numbers, we get: 1.2

For every move of the decimal place to get there, we divide/multiply by 10 each time. In this case, we multiply by 10 each time.

To get to 1.2, we had to move the decimal 2 times, so the answer is 1.2×10^-2

When you move the decimal to the right, the value of the power is negative, and when you move it to the left it is positive.

If f(x)=x^2 and g(x)=2x+3, what is f(g(x))
IgorC [24]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{f(g(x)) = 4x^2 + 12x + 9}

Explanation:

In its raw form, function notation essentially represents an equation with only one unknown variable, expressed in terms of another.  Thus, f(x) = x² + 7x can be expressed as

g(x) = 2x + 3

f(g(x)) = (2x + 3)²

f(g(x)) = 4x² + 12x + 9

Hope it helps :) and let me know if you want me to elaborate.
