Answer:
(1) cathode: Y
(2) anode X
(3) electrons in the wire flow toward: Y
(4) electrons in the wire flow away from: X
(5) anions from the salt bridge flow toward X
(6) cations from the salt bridge flow toward Y
(7) gains mass: Y
(8) looses mass X
Explanation:
The voltaic cell uses two different metal electrodes, each in an electrolyte solution. The anode will undergo oxidation and the cathode will undergo reduction. The metal of the anode will oxidize, going from an oxidation state of 0 (in the solid form) to a positive oxidation state, and it will become an ion. At the cathode, the metal ion in the solution will accept one or more electrons from the cathode, and the ion’s oxidation state will reduce to 0. This forms a solid metal that deposits on the cathode. The two electrodes must be electrically connected to each other, allowing for a flow of electrons that leave the metal of the anode and flow through this connection to the ions at the surface of the cathode. This flow of electrons is an electrical current that can be used to do work, such as turn a motor or power a light.
Answer:
7.65 moles of silver are produced
Explanation:
Zinc, Zn, reacts with silver nitrate, AgNO3, as follows:
Zn + 2AgNO3 → Zn(NO3)2 + 2Ag
<em>Where 1 mole of Zn reacts with an excess of AgNO3 to produce 2 moles of Ag</em>
To solve this question we must convert the mass of Zn to moles and, using the chemical equation, we can find the moles of Ag as follows:
<em>Moles Zn (Molar mass: 65.38g/mol):</em>
250g Zn * (1mol / 65.38g) = 3.824 moles Zn
<em>Moles Ag:</em>
3.824 moles Zn * (2mol Ag / 1mol Zn) =
<h3>7.65 moles of silver are produced</h3>
Answer:
oxidation- reduction
Explanation:
where gaining electronic reduces one element and losing them oxidize the other nitric acid is not only strong it is also a oxidizing agent
<h2>Oxidize: copper = Cu+2</h2>
Answer:
Some varieties of potato, such as Russet and King Edward, are more suitable for baking than others, owing to their size and consistency. Despite the popular misconception that potatoes are fattening, baked potatoes can be part of a healthy diet.[2]
