Chemistry

Nonamiya [84]2 years ago
4 0

Answer :

(a) Reaction at anode (oxidation) : 4Fe^{2+}\rightarrow 4Fe^{3+}+4e^-  

(b) Reaction at cathode (reduction) : O_2+4H^++4e^-\rightarrow 2H_2O  

(c) O_2+4H^++4Fe^{2+}\rightarrow 2H_2O+4Fe^{3+}

(d) Yes, we have have enough information to calculate the cell voltage under standard conditions.

Explanation :

The half reaction will be:

Reaction at anode (oxidation) : Fe^{2+}\rightarrow Fe^{3+}+e^-     E^0_{anode}=+0.771V

Reaction at cathode (reduction) : O_2+4H^++4e^-\rightarrow 2H_2O     E^0_{cathode}=+1.23V

To balance the electrons we are multiplying oxidation reaction by 4 and then adding both the reaction, we get:

Part (a):

Reaction at anode (oxidation) : 4Fe^{2+}\rightarrow 4Fe^{3+}+4e^-     E^0_{anode}=+0.771V

Part (b):

Reaction at cathode (reduction) : O_2+4H^++4e^-\rightarrow 2H_2O     E^0_{cathode}=+1.23V

Part (c):

The balanced cell reaction will be,

O_2+4H^++4Fe^{2+}\rightarrow 2H_2O+4Fe^{3+}

Part (d):

Now we have to calculate the standard electrode potential of the cell.

E^o=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}

E^o=(1.23V)-(0.771V)=+0.459V

For a reaction to be spontaneous, the standard electrode potential must be positive.

So, we have have enough information to calculate the cell voltage under standard conditions.

A gas with a vapor density greater than that of air, would be most effectively displaced out off a vessel by?
AURORKA [14]

A gas with a vapor density greater than that of air, would be most effectively displaced out off a vessel by ventilation.

The two following principles determine the type of ventilation: Considering the impact of the contaminant's vapour density and either positive or negative pressure is applied.

Consider a vertical tank that is filled with methane gas. Methane would leak out if we opened the top hatch since its vapour density is far lower than that of air. A second opening could be built at the bottom to greatly increase the process' efficiency.

A faster atmospheric turnover would follow from air being pulled in via the bottom while the methane was vented out the top. The rate of natural ventilation will increase with the difference in vapour density. Numerous gases that require ventilation are either present in fairly low concentrations or have vapor densities close to one.

I have my chemistry EOC tomorrow, and I need to know how to calculate the molar mass of a compound. Specifically ones set up lik
yuradex [85]

Answer:

357.475

Explanation:

First you need periodic table and you have to look for mass

Fe = 3 x 55.845 = 167.535

P = 2  x 30.97 = 61.94

o = 4 x 2 so 8 oxygen =  8 x 16 = 128

add all and you get 357.475

hydrolysis of decapeptide P with the enzyme trypsin affords the following fragments: Glu-Gly-Lys, Gln-Val-Ile, Ala-Ser-Phe-Lys.
ehidna [41]

Answer:

The sequence of an amino acid P is:

Glu-Gly-Lys-Ala-Ser-Phe-Lys-Gln-Val-Ile

Explanation:

Fragments obtained on hydrolysis of decapeptide P by the action of an enzyme named trypsin:

  • Glu-Gly-Lys,
  • Gln-Val-Ile
  • Ala-Ser-Phe-Lys

Fragments obtained on hydrolysis of decapeptide P by the action of an enzyme named chymotrypsin:

  • Lys-Gln-Val-Ile,
  • Glu-Gly-Lys-Ala-Ser-Phe

In order to determine the sequence of protein P , we will arrange fragments in such a way so that common fragments or the common parts of fragments should come under each other.

On arranging these fragments :

Glu-Gly-Lys-Ala-Ser-Phe

Glu-Gly-Lys

                   Ala-Ser-Phe-Lys

                                         Lys-Gln-Val-Ile

                                                Gln-Val-Ile

The sequence of an amino acid P is:

Glu-Gly-Lys-Ala-Ser-Phe-Lys-Gln-Val-Ile
