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

A sample of carbon -12 has a mass of 6.00 g. How many atoms of carbon -12 are in the sample ?
nevsk [136]

Answer:

3.02e23

Explanation:

carbon molecular weight = 12 g /mol

1 mol = 6.02e23 atoms

your sample, 6 g / 12 g/mol = 0.5 mol

0.5 x 6.02e23 =

How many kJ of heat are released by the reaction of 25.0 g of Na2O2(s) in the following reaction? (M = 78.0 g/mol for Na2O2)
solong [7]

-20.16 KJ of heat are released by the reaction of 25.0 g of Na2O2.

Explanation:

Given:

mass of Na2O2 = 25 grams

atomic mass of Na2O2 = 78 gram/mole

number of mole = \frac{mass}{atomic mass of 1 mole}

                          = \frac{25}{78}

                          =0. 32 moles

The balanced equation for the reaction:

2 Na2O2(s) + 2 H2O(l) → 4 NaOH(aq) + O2(g) ∆Hο = −126 kJ

It can be seen that 126 KJ of energy is released when 2 moles of Na2O2 undergoes reaction.

similarly 0.3 moles of Na2O2 on reaction would give:

\frac{126}{2} = \frac{x}{0.32}

x = \frac{126 x 0.32}{2}

 = -20.16 KJ

Thus, - 20.16 KJ of energy will be released.
