Answer:

a) Ti⁻²|Ti || Pt|Pt⁻²

b) +2.83 V

c) Pt + Ti⁻² → Pt⁻² + Ti

d) Pt

Explanation:

a) In the cell circuit, a redox reaction will happen, and one of the electrodes will oxide (it will lose electrons) and the other will reduce (it will gain electrons). The potential to reduce is measured by the standard potential reduction (E°). As higher is it, as easy is to the reduction reaction happens. The values for Pt and Ti are:

Pt + 2e⁻ → Pt⁻² E° = +1.20 V

Ti + 2e⁻ → Ti⁻² E° = -1.63 V

So, Pt will reduce and Ti will oxide. The oxidation reaction is the opposite of the reduction, and at the line notation, first is placed the oxidation reaction, thus:

Ti⁻²|Ti || Pt|Pt⁻²

b) The cell voltage (ΔE°) is the E° of the reduction reaction less the E° of the oxidation reaction:

ΔE° = 1.20 - (-1.63)

ΔE° = +2.83 V

c) The spontaneous net cell reaction will be the sum of the reduction reaction and the oxidation:

Pt + 2e⁻ → Pt⁻² (reduction)

Ti⁻² → Ti + 2e⁻ (oxidation)

----------------------------

Pt + Ti⁻² → Pt⁻² + Ti

d) In the cell, the electrodes are called cathode and anode. The electrode where the oxidation occurs is the anode, and the other, where the reduction occurs, is the cathode. Thus, in this case, the Pt electrode is the anode.

What are dipoles, and what is the difference between a natural dipole and an induced dipole?
Tasya [4]

Answer:

See explanation below.

Explanation:

Dipoles are molecules that have partial charges. It happens because of the difference in electronegativity of the elements. This property is the tendency that the atom has to take the electron to it, so, in the covalent bond, the shared pair of electrons is easily found at the more electronegativity atom, and so, it has a partial negative charge, and the other, a partial positive charge. This is a natural dipole.

If the difference of electronegativity is 0, or extremely close to 0, then the molecule is nonpolar, and so the molecule doesn't have partial charges. But, to be joined together and form the substance, the partial charge must be induced, so it's an induced dipole.
