7 0

They tend to be lustrous, ductile, malleable, and good conductors of electricity, while nonmetals are generally brittle (for solid nonmetals), lack lustre, and are insulators.

A ball rolls across a floor with an acceleration of 0.100 m/s2 in a direction opposite to its velocity. The ball has a velocity

Westkost [7]

Answer:

4.15 m/s

Explanation:

Its given that acceleration is 0.1 m/s² with a direction opposite to the velocity. Since, the direction of acceleration is opposite to the velocity, this gives us a hint that the velocity is decreasing and so acceleration would be negative.

i.e.

acceleration = a = - 0.1 m/s²

Distance covered = S = 6m

Velocity after covering 6 meters = Final velocity = $v_{f}$ = 4 m/s

We need to find the initial speed, which will be the same as the magnitude of initial velocity.

Initial velocity = $v_{i}$ = ?

3rd equation of motion relates the acceleration, distance, final velocity and initial velocity as:

$2aS = (v_{f})^{2}-(v_{i})^{2}$

Using the known values in the formula, we get:

$2(-0.1)(6)=(4)^{2}- (v_{i})^{2}\\\\ (v_{i})^{2}=16+1.2\\\\ (v_{i})^{2}=17.2\\\\ v_{i}=4.15$

Thus, the initial speed of the ball was 4.15 m/s

xConsider the following reduction potentials: Cu2+ + 2e– Cu E° = 0.339 V Pb2+ + 2e– Pb E° = –0.130 V For a galvanic cell employi

slega [8]

Answer:

Approximately $\rm 90\; kJ$ .

Explanation:

Cathode is where reduction takes place and anode is where oxidation takes place. The potential of a electrochemical reaction ( $E^{\circ}(\text{cell})$ ) is equal to

$E^{\circ}(\text{cell}) = E^{\circ}(\text{cathode}) - E^{\circ}(\text{anode})$ .

There are two half-reactions in this question. $\rm Cu^{2+} + 2\,e^{-} \rightleftharpoons Cu$ and $\rm Pb^{2+} + 2\,e^{-} \rightleftharpoons Pb$ . Either could be the cathode (while the other acts as the anode.) However, for the reaction to be spontaneous, the value of $E^{\circ}(\text{cell})$ should be positive.

In this case, $E^{\circ}(\text{cell})$ is positive only if $\rm Cu^{2+} + 2\,e^{-} \rightleftharpoons Cu$ is the reaction takes place at the cathode. The net reaction would be

$\rm Cu^{2+} + Pb \to Cu + Pb^{2+}$ .

Its cell potential would be equal to $0.339 - (-0.130) = \rm 0.469\; V$ .

The maximum amount of electrical energy possible (under standard conditions) is equal to the free energy of this reaction:

$\Delta G^{\circ} = n \cdot F \cdot E^{\circ} (\text{cell})$ ,

where

$n$ is the number moles of electrons transferred for each mole of the reaction. In this case the value of $n$ is $2$ as in the half-reactions.
$F$ is Faraday's Constant (approximately $96485.33212\; \rm C \cdot mol^{-1}$ .)

$\begin{aligned}\Delta G^{\circ} &= n \cdot F \cdot E^{\circ} (\text{cell})\cr &= 2\times 96485.33212 \times (0.339 - (-0.130)) \cr &\approx 9.0 \times 10^{4} \; \rm J \cr &= 90\; \rm kJ\end{aligned}$ .
