Consider the half reactions below for a chemical reaction.
ladessa [460]

Answer:

Option A:

Zn(s) + Cu^(2+) (aq) → Cu(s) + Zn^(2+)(aq)

Explanation:

The half reactions given are:

Zn(s) → Zn^(2+)(aq) + 2e^(-)

Cu^(2+) (aq) + 2e^(-) → Cu(s)

From the given half reactions, we can see that in the first one, Zn undergoes oxidation to produce Zn^(2+).

While in the second half reaction, Cu^(2+) is reduced to Cu.

Thus, for the overall reaction, we will add both half reactions to get;

Zn(s) + Cu^(2+) (aq) + 2e^(-) → Cu(s) + Zn^(2+)(aq) + 2e^(-)

2e^(-) will cancel out to give us;

Zn(s) + Cu^(2+) (aq) → Cu(s) + Zn^(2+)(aq)

Design an invitation you could use to calculate the density of a penny
Nataliya [291]
Firstly, the density of any substance is represented by the mass (amount of matter) as divided by the volume(amount of space). According to external websites, the mass of a penny is 2.5 grams.However, the volume of a penny is .35cm to the power of 3 (due to the thickness of the penny being extremely minimal.Thus the amount of density is extremely little). Therefore, the density of a penny is 0.875 g/cm cubed (dimensional analysis).As for an invention that could be used, that is possible with the usage of a series of measurements that can both calculate mass and volume and directly allocate that to attain density

Help! I need help on how to do these problems.
svetlana [45]

Answer:

a. 3; b. 5; c. 10; d. 12

Explanation:

pH is defined as the negative log of the hydronium concentration:

pH = -log[H₃O⁺] (hydronium concentration)

For problems a. and b., HCl and HNO₃ are strong acids. This means that all of the HCl and HNO₃ would ionize, producing hydronium (H₃O⁺) and the conjugate bases Cl⁻ and NO₃⁻ respectively. Further, since all of the strong acid ionizes, 1 x 10⁻³ M H₃O⁺ would be produced for a., and 1.0 x 10⁻⁵ M H₃O⁺ for b. Plugging in your calculator -log[1 x 10⁻³] and -log[1.0 x 10⁻⁵] would equal 3 and 5, respectively.

For problems c. and d. we are given a strong base rather than acid. In this case, we can calculate the pOH:

pOH = -log[OH⁻] (hydroxide concentration)

Strong bases similarly ionize to completion, producing [OH⁻] in the process; 1 x 10⁻⁴ M OH⁻ will be produced for c., and 1.0 x 10⁻² M OH⁻ produced for d. Taking the negative log of the hydroxide concentrations would yield a pOH of 4 for c. and a pOH of 2 for d.

Finally, to find the pH of c. and d., we can take the pOH and subtract it from 14, giving us 10 for c. and 12 for d.

(Subtracting from 14 is assuming we are at 25°C; 14, the sum of pH and pOH, changes at different temperatures.)
