Answer:

E^{0} for Zn^{2+}\mid Zn system would be -1.53 V

Explanation:

Determination of standard reduction potential of any system is done by placing the system in cathode and a reference half cell in anode and then evaluate the cell potential. The cell potential is the standard reduction potential of the system.

So E_{cell}^{0}=E_{system}^{0}-E_{reference}^{0}

As E_{H^{+}\mid H_{2}}^{0} is equal to 0 therefore cell potential is equal to reduction potential of any system by taking hydrogen electrode as a reference.

E_{Zn^{2+}\mid Zn}^{0} equal to -0.76 V with respect to hydrogen

E_{Fe^{3+}\mid Fe^{2+}}^{0} equal to 0.77 V with respect to hydrogen

Therefore standard reduction potential of Zn^{2+}\mid Zn system when Fe^{3+}\mid Fe^{2+} system is taken as reference is-

E_{cell}^{0}=E_{Zn^{2+}\mid Zn}^{0}-E_{Fe^{3+}\mid Fe^{2+}}^{0}

                          = -0.76 V - 0.77 V

                          = -1.53 V

Adding hydrogen atoms to an unsaturated fatty acid will make it __________.
xxMikexx [17]

The answer is (a.) more solid

 

Adding hydrogen atoms to an unsaturated fatty acid will make it more solid. This process is called hydrogenation. In this process, hydrogen is added to an unsaturated fatty acid to make it more saturated and thereby more solid at a room temperature.

Write down examples of some natural acids and natural bases. Also write use of them.
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Formic acid, citric acid, Oxalic acid, washing soda, baking soda, etc. can be some examples of natural acids and natural bases. They both have domestic, industrial, and various other purposes.

Explanation:

<h3><u>NATURAL ACIDS</u>:</h3>

There are lots of natural acids present in our nature. Some of them are the following:

> <u>Formic acid</u>

 USE: It is used in the stimulation of oil and gas wells as it is less reactive towards the metal.

> <u>Citric acid</u>

 USE: It is considered as the best rust remover as it doesn't harm the metal just remove the rust.

> <u>Oxalic acid</u>

USE: It easily remove iron and ink stains and that's why it is used as an acid rinsing material in Laundries.

<h3><u>NATURAL BASES</u>:</h3>

There is a variety of natural base found in our nature which founds a lot of uses in day to day life. some of them are the following:

> <u>Washing soda</u>

USE: It is used in commercial detergent mixture to treat hard water.

> <u>Baking soda</u>

USE: It is the best rising agent used mostly in cooking and for domestic purposes like removing stains, etc..
