Answer:

Only Fe^{3+}+Mg gives spontaneous reaction.

Explanation:

A redox reaction will be spontaneous if standard reduction potential (E^{0}) of the reaction is positive. Because it leads to negative standard gibbs free energy change (\Delta G^{0}), which is a thermodynamic condition for spontaneity of a reaction.

E^{0}=E^{0}(reduction)-E^{0}(oxidation)

Where E^{0}(reduction) and E^{0}(oxidation) represents standard reduction potential of reduction half cell and standard reduction potential of oxidation half cell.

(1) Oxidation:         Mg-2e^{-}\rightarrow Mg^{2+} ;  E_{Mg^{2+}\mid Mg}^{0}=-2.38V

Reduction:         Fe^{3+}+3e^{-}\rightarrow Fe ; E_{Fe^{3+}\mid Fe}^{0}=-0.04V

So, E^{0}=E_{Fe^{3+}\mid Fe}^{0}-E_{Mg^{2+}\mid Mg}^{0}=(-0.04+2.38)V=2.34V

Hence this pair will give spontaneous reaction.

(2) Similarly as above, E^{0}=E_{Pb^{2+}\mid Pb}^{0}-E_{Au^{+}\mid Au}^{0}=(-0.13-1.69)V=-1.82 V

Hence this pair will give non-spontaneous reaction.

(3) Similarly as above, E^{0}=E_{Ag^{+}\mid Ag}^{0}-E_{Br_{2}\mid Br^{-}}^{0}=(0.80-1.07)V=-0.27 V

Hence this pair will give non-spontaneous reaction.

(4)  Similarly as above, E^{0}=E_{Li^{+}\mid Li}^{0}-E_{Cr^{3+}\mid Cr}^{0}=(-3.04+0.74)V=-2.30 V

Hence this pair will give non-spontaneous reaction.

how many molecules of sulfuric acid are in a spherical raindrop of diameter 6.0 mm if the acid rain has a concentration of 4.4 *
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

The number of moles =

Moles=4.97\times 10^{-8}

The number of molecules =

Molecules = 2.99\times 10^{16}

Explanation:

Volume of the sphere is given by :

V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}

here, r = radius of the sphere

radius=\frac{diameter}{2}

radius=\frac{6.0}{2}

Radius = 3 mm

r = 3 mm

1 mm = 0.01 dm (1 millimeter = 0.001 decimeter)

3 mm = 3 x 0.01 dm = 0.03 dm

r = 0.03 dm

<em>("volume must be in dm^3 , this is the reason radius is changed into dm"</em>

<em>"this is done because 1 dm^3 = 1 liter and concentration is always measured in liters")</em>

V=\frac{4}{3}\pi 0.03^{3}

V=\frac{4}{3}\pi 2.7\times 10^{-5}

V=1.13\times 10^{-4}dm^{3}

V=1.13\times 10^{-4}L   (1 L = 1 dm3)

Now, concentration "C"=

C=4.4\times 10^{-4}moles/liter  

The concentration is given by the formula :

C=\frac{moles}{Volume(L)}

This is also written as,

Moles = C\times Volume

Moles=1.13\times 10^{-4}\times 4.4\times 10^{-4}

Moles=4.97\times 10^{-8}moles

One mole of the substance contain "Na"(= Avogadro number of molecules)

So, "n"  mole of substance contain =( n x Na )

N_{a}=6.022\times 10^{23}

Molecules =

Molecule=4.97\times 10^{-8}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}

Molecules = 2.99\times 10^{16} molecules
