Answer:

The answer is 357.85 K.

Explanation:

In order to convert temperatures from degrees Celsius to degrees Kelvin, use the following formula:

temperature in degrees Kelvin = temperature in degrees Celsius + 273.15.

(Oftentimes, 273 is used instead of 273.15; it depends on the discretion of the teacher or student.)

The temperature given in degrees Celsius = 84.7° C

Therefore, the temperature in degrees Kelvin (K) = 84.7 + 273.15 = 357.85 K.

To convert from C to K you just at 273.15 to the C value.

84.7C
+ 273.15 (C—>K)
= 357.85K

Since the first value has only 1 sig fig left of the decimal, the answer must also be the same. And we round down to get to the nearest even digit

Final answer = 357.8K

Which 1.0 M solution has the lowest pH? A -HCN B -H3PO4 C -H2C2O4 D -HCl

fredd [130]

The solution with the lowest pH would mean that it is an acid, specifically a strong acid which completely dissociates into ions in aqueous solution. Among the choices listed above, I think the correct answer is option D. It is nitric acid that will have the lowest pH because it is the only strong acid in the group

Calculate the volume occupied by 55.5 moles of water at STP.

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Volume occupied by 55.5 moles of water gas at STP = 1240 Liters.

Explanation:

1st keep in mind that 'volume' in the context of problems like this apply only to the gas phase form of the substance. Water in solid form (ice) or liquid form (liquid water) do not apply. Volume in this case is referred to as 'molar volume' and is a gas occupying 22.4 liters at STP conditions (0°C, 1Atm).

So, if 1 molar volume of water gas (steam) occupies 22.4 Liters at STP, then 55.5 moles of water gas occupies 22.4 Liters/mole x 55.5 moles = 1243.2 Liters, or 1240 Liters (3 sig. figs.). :-)

A galvanic cell consists of one half-cell that contains Ag(s) and Ag+(aq), and one half-cell that contains Cu(s) and Cu2+(aq). W

Agata [3.3K]

Answer : The 'Ag' is produced at the cathode electrode and 'Cu' is produced at anode electrode under standard conditions.

Explanation :

Galvanic cell : It is defined as a device which is used for the conversion of the chemical energy produces in a redox reaction into the electrical energy. It is also known as the voltaic cell or electrochemical cell.

In the galvanic cell, the oxidation occurs at an anode which is a negative electrode and the reduction occurs at the cathode which is a positive electrode.

We are taking the value of standard reduction potential form the standard table.

$E^0_{[Ag^{+}/Ag]}=+0.80V$

$E^0_{[Cu^{2+}/Cu]}=+0.34V$

In this cell, the component that has lower standard reduction potential gets oxidized and that is added to the anode electrode. The second forms the cathode electrode.

The balanced two-half reactions will be,

Oxidation half reaction (Anode) : $Cu(s)\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq)+2e^-$

Reduction half reaction (Cathode) : $Ag^{+}(aq)+e^-\rightarrow Ag(s)$

Thus the overall reaction will be,

$Cu(s)+2Ag^{+}(aq)\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq)+2Ag(s)$

From this we conclude that, 'Ag' is produced at the cathode electrode and 'Cu' is produced at anode electrode under standard conditions.

Hence, the 'Ag' is produced at the cathode electrode and 'Cu' is produced at anode electrode under standard conditions.

What types of changes are typically involved in equilibrium reactions? A. pressure only B. temperature only C. pressure or tempe

musickatia [10]

The correct answer is option D. i.e. pressure, temperature, or concentration.

Equilibrium reactions can involve
1) changes in the temperature conditions - high or low or exothermic or endothermic.
2) Pressure - By increasing or decreasing the pressure
3) Concentration - the changes in concentration take place in either products side or reactants side.
