Answer : The value of E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)} is, 0.34 V

Explanation :

Here, copper will undergo reduction reaction will get reduced. Zinc will undergo oxidation reaction and will get oxidized.

The oxidation-reduction half cell reaction will be,

Oxidation half reaction:  Zn\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+2e^-

Reduction half reaction:  Cu^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Cu

Oxidation reaction occurs at anode and reduction reaction occurs at cathode. That means, gold shows reduction and occurs at cathode and chromium shows oxidation and occurs at anode.

The overall balanced equation of the cell is,

Zn+Cu^{2+}\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+Cu

To calculate the E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)} of the reaction, we use the equation:

E^o_{cell}=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}

E^o_{cell}=E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}-E^o_{(Zn^{2+}/Zn)}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.10V=E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}-(-0.76V)

E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}=0.34V

Hence, the value of E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)} is, 0.34 V

9. Which statement provides evidence that supports the Big Bang Theory?* 2 points
liberstina [14]

The statement the chemical makeup of the universe has changed dramatically provides evidence that supports the Big Bang Theory (Option D).

<h3>What is the Big Bang Theory?</h3>

The Big Bang Theory is a widely accepted theory in physics that states all the universe began with a huge explosion and form then matters expanded in space at the same time that it is cooling.

Therefore, with this data, we can see that the Big Bang Theory states that the chemical composition of the universe associated with hydrogen and helium modified since this explosion.

Which of the halide ions (f−, cl−, br−, and i−) is the most stable base? which is the least stable base?
Nezavi [6.7K]
You should take note that the question is about stability. A compound is stable if it does not easily react with other elements. Hence, its reactivity must be low. As you move down the group, reactivity decreases. So, the halide at the very bottom is the least reactive. It would then be logical that the most stable conjugate base is I⁻ and the least stable conjugate base is the most reactive which is F⁻.

An air sample contains 0.044% CO2? If the total pressure is 750 mm Hg. What is the partial pressure of CO2?2?
Aleksandr [31]
Partial pressure=mole fraction×Pt
x=0.044÷44(maolarmass of CO2)×Pt
x=0.044÷(44)2×Pt
x=5×10^-4×Pt
x=5×10^-4×Pt
where Pt:1atm=760mmHg
xatm=750mmHg
750×1÷760=0.99
now;5×10^-4×099=4.95×10^-4.
Pt=4.95×10^-4
