One major component of all fuel cells is the electrolyte. An electrolyte is a solution that is able to conduct electricity. In an alkaline fuel cell the electrolyte is an alkaline liquid: in this case, potassium hydroxide also known as KOH.

For a beryllium-gold voltaic cell containing Be2+(aq) and Au3+(aq) solutions, do the following. (a) Identify the cathode. (Inclu
OLEGan [10]

Answer:  Gold act as cathode.

Explanation:

Standard potential for an electrochemical cell is given by:

E^0{cell} = standard electrode potential =E^0{cathode}-E^0{anode}

The E^0 values have to be reduction potentials.  

Reduction potentials for given elements

E^o_{Be^{2+}/Be}=-1.97V

E^o_{Au^{3+}/Au}=+1.40V

The element Be with negative reduction potential will lose electrons undergo oxidation and thus act as anode.The element Au with positive reduction potential will gain electrons undergo reduction and thus acts as cathode.

Cathode : 2Au^{3+}+6e^-\rightarrow 2Au

Anode : 3Be\rightarrow 3Be^{2+}+6e^-

3Be+2Au^{3+}(aq)\rightarrow 2Au+3Be^{2+}(aq)

Thus gold act as cathode.

In a nuclear reaction, the parent element is always radioactive.
Serga [27]
Hydrogen to be more precise protium which is an isotope of hydrogen containing one proton and one electron. It is considered to be very stable which explains it's abundance everywhere. However under extreme conditions like in the sun, it undergoes nuclear fusion to form helium. So in conclusion, under normal circumstances Protium is considered to be very stable however under extreme circumstances it is radioactive. Does that answer your question?

Halppp can anyone come up with a slogan for anti smoking
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

"Your Choice: Liberation From Your Own Choices or Continue the Choice That Decreases Your Liberation."

Explanation:

Liberation is the freeing or release from something restraining you. In this case, smoking holds you back from doing the things you used to do.

It's not that creative, but I hope this is good enough for you! :D (don't smoke)

Glucose (c6h12o6) has a single carbonyl group (-c=o) in its linear form. based on the number of oxygen atoms in glucose, how man
sveta [45]
Glucose is a hexose monosaccharide. It is one of the three major monosaccharides along with fructose and galactose. These are carbohydrates with a general formula of Cₓ(H₂O)ₓ, where x could be any number.

Now, you don't have to know the structural formula of the glucose to answer this. Just account all the elements in the glucose. You know that there are 6 oxygen atoms all in all. One of them belongs to the single carbonyl group. Consequently, that would mean that the remaining 5 oxygen atoms bond with hydrogen atoms to form 5 OH groups.

Just to be sure let us refer to the structural formula of glucose shown in the picture. It indeed has 5 OH groups.
