Answer:

b. E = 2,28V

Explanation:

The maximum work is the same than ΔG. As ΔG could be written as:

ΔG = nFE <em>(1)</em>

Where n is moles of electrons transferred, F is faraday constant (96485 J/Vmol) and E is the voltage of the cell.

For the reaction:

CH₃OH(l) + ³/₂O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l)

The oxidation state of C in CH₃OH is -2 but in CO₂ is +4, that means transferred electrons are +4 - -2 = <em>6e⁻</em>

Replacing in (1):

1320x10³ J = 6mol e⁻×96485J/Vmol×E

<em>E = 2,28V</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

An isotope has a half-life of 10 minutes. after 20 minutes, what percentage of the original nuclei remain?
Elena-2011 [213]
To solve this, we can use two equations.
t1/2 = ln 2 / λ = 0.693 / λ  
   
where, t1/2 is half-life and λ is the decay constant.

t1/2 = 10 min = 0.693 / λ

Hence, λ = 0.693 / 10 min              -         (1)

Nt = Nο e∧(-λt)    
                
Nt = amount of atoms at t =t time
Nο= initial amount of atoms
t = time taken

by rearranging the equation,
Nt/Nο = e∧(-λt)                  -  (2)

From (1) and (2),

Nt/Nο = e∧(-(0.693 / 10 min) x 20 min) 
Nt/Nο = 0.2500

Percentage of remaining nuclei = (nuclei at t time / initial nuclei) x 100%
                                                     
= (Nt/Nο ) x 100%
                                                      = 0.2500 x 100%
                                                      = 25.00%

Hence, Percentage of remaining nuclei is 25.00%

Different measurements are expressed in different units. Choose the correct Sl units for the lo
swat32

Answer:

The SI units for measuring the velocity of the car: meters per second (m/s)

The Sl units for measuring the acceleration of the car: meters per second squared  (m/s^2)

The SI units for measuring force:  Newton (N)

The SI units for measuring mass: kilograms (kg)

Explanation:

Système international (SI) or International System of Units consist of a list of unit measurement that mostly used by scientist. The scientist from a different country might use different unit that makes them have to convert the result of each other. The usage of the same unit measurement will help the scientist to read that publication easier, make it easier to share and discuss any topic. The unit used is metric since the decimal system also makes the conversion of a unit easier.
