A voltaic electrochemical cell consists of a copper electrode in a Cu2SO4(aq) solution, and a palladium electrode in a PdSO4(aq)

solution at 25°C. The salt bridge consists of a solution of KCl(aq).
What is the concentration of the Cu+if the concentration of the PdSO4 is 0.498 M and the measured cell potential is 0.447 V?

Given: Cu+(aq) + e- ↔ Cu(s) E°=+0.521 V

and Pd2+(aq) + 2e- ↔ Pd(s) E°=+0.987 V

Answer:

\large \boxed{\textbf{1.48 mol/L}}

Explanation:

We must use the Nernst equation

E = E^{\circ} - \dfrac{RT}{zF}lnQ

1. Calculate E°

Anode:     Pd²⁺ (0.498 mol·L⁻¹) + 2e⁻ ⇌ Pd;                               E° = +0.987 V

<u>Cathode: Cu ⇌ Cu⁺ (x mol·L⁻¹) + e⁻;                                         </u>  E°=  <u>- 0.521 V </u>

Overall:   Pd²⁺(0.498 mol·L⁻¹) + 2Cu ⟶ Pd + 2Cu⁺ (x mol·L⁻¹); E° =   0.466 V

2. Calculate Q

\begin{array}{rcl}0.447 & = & 0.466 - \dfrac{8.314\times 298}{2 \times 96 485} \ln Q\\\\-0.019& = & -0.01284 \ln Q\\\ln Q & = & 1.480\\Q & = & e^{1.480}\\ & = & 4.392\\\end{array}

3. Calculate [Cu⁺]

\begin{array}{rcl}Q & = & \dfrac{\text{[Cu$^{+}$]}^{2}}{\text{[Pd]}}\\\\4.392 & = & \dfrac{{x}^{2}}{0.498}\\\\x^{2}& = & 2.187\\x & = & 1.48\\\end{array}\\\text{The concentration of Cu$^{+}$ is $\large \boxed{\textbf{1.48 mol/L}}$}

yuradex [85]

Answer:

[Ne]3s2

Explanation:

ahora tenemos que mirar cada una de las configuraciones electrónicas de cada átomo de cerca antes de tomar una decisión.

considerando la configuración electrónica más externa de cada una de las especies mostradas;

para la primera configuración, ns2 np6 corresponde a un gas noble.

para la segunda configuración ns2 np3 corresponde a un elemento no metálico del grupo 5.

para la tercera configuración, ns2 corresponde a un elemento metálico del grupo 2.

para la cuarta configuración, ns2 np4 corresponde a un elemento no metálico del grupo 6

A sample of 0.0860 g of sodium chloride is added to 30.0 mL of 0.050 M silver nitrate, resulting in the formation of a precipita
mestny [16]

Answer:

The answer is:

(a) NaCl(aq)+AgNO_3(aq) \rightarrow AgCl(r) +NaNO_3 (aq)

(b) NaCl

(c) 0.211 g

Explanation:

Given:

The mass of NaCl,

= 0.0860 g

The molar mass of NaCl,

= 58.44 g/mol

The volume of AgNO_3,

= 30.0 ml

or,

= 0.030 L

Molarity of AgNO_3,

= 0.050 M

Moles of NaCl will be:

= \frac{Given \ mass}{Molar \ mass}

= \frac{0.0860}{58.44}

= 0.00147 \ mol

now,

Moles of AgNO_3 will be:

= Molarity\times Volume

= 0.050\times 0.030

=0.0015 \ mol

(a)

The reaction is:

⇒ NaCl(aq)+AgNO_3(aq) \rightarrow AgCl(r) +NaNO_3 (aq)

(b)

1 mole of NaCl react with,

= 1 mol of AgNO_3

0.0015 mol AgNO_3 needs,

= 0.00150 \ mol \ NaCl

Available mol of NaCl < needed amount of NaCl

So,

The limiting reagent is "NaCl".

(c)

The precipitate formed,

= 0.00147\times \frac{1}{1}\times \frac{143.32}{1}

= 0.211 \ g \ AgCl
