Chemistry
1 answer:
Likurg_2 [28]3 years ago
6 0

In an electrochemical cell in which the oxidation reaction is nonspontaneous  the oxidation will not occur spontaneously at the anode and the reduction will not be spontaneous at the cathode.  And according to the law for the calculation of the voltage potential of the electrochemical cell (Ecell):

Ecell = Eox. - Ere.  where (Eox. is the potential of the oxidation at the anode and Ere. is the potential of the reduction at the cathode). The standard potential for an electrolytic cell is negative, because of the Ere. which is greater than Eox.

The answer is : less than zero.

When 100ml of M HCl is mixed with 100ml of N NaOH, the pH of the resulting solution is
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Option d. 7

Explanation:

A mixture of a strong base and a strong acid produce a neutral salt and water.

This is the reaction of neutralization:

HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H₂O

NaCl →  Na⁺  +  Cl⁻

Sodium chloride is neutral salt which does not give H⁻ neither OH⁻ to medium, that's why pH is neutral.

Both ions are derivated from a strong acid and base so they do not make hydrolisis. They are a conjugate pair of a weak acid and base. The reactions can not occur:

Cl⁻  +  H₂O ← OH⁻  +  HCl

Na⁺  +  H₃O⁺ ← NaOH  + H₂O
