If the same materials are used to build a voltaic cell and an electrolytic cell, how would the chemical reactions compare?

nadya68 [22]

In the electrolytic cell, depending on the polarity of the battery, either a more vigorous reaction (though the same as the voltaic cell) would occur, or the reverse would.

Limestone stalactites and stalagmites are formed in caves by the following reaction: Ca2 (aq) 2HCO−3(aq)→CaCO3(s) CO2(g) H2O(l)

Vesna [10]

Answer : The value of $\Delta E$ for this reaction is 36.18 kJ

Explanation :

First law of thermodynamic : It states that the energy can not be created or destroyed, it can only change or transfer from one state to another state.

As per first law of thermodynamic,

$\Delta E=q+w$

where,

$\Delta E$ = internal energy of the system

q = heat added or rejected by the system

w = work done

As we are given that:

q = 38.65 kJ

w = -2.47 kJ (system work done on surrounding)

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

$\Delta E=38.65kJ+(-2.47kJ)$

$\Delta E=36.18kJ$

Therefore, the value of $\Delta E$ for this reaction is 36.18 kJ

How many electrons in an atom can have each of the following quantum number or sublevel designations?

lutik1710 [3]

Answer: a:6 electrons, b:10electrons, c: 2electrons

Explanation:

1.Principle quantum number(n)

n is the number of shell, it is a positive integer. The maximum number of electrons in a shell is 2(n2)

2.Azimuthal quantum number(l)

l is the number of subshell in the principal shell

The name of subshell are s, p, d, f

The number of nodes in each subshell is

s is l=0, p is l=1, d is l=2, f is l=3.

Each shell can have 2 x l + 1 sublevels, and each sublevel can accommodate maximum of 2 electrons and have two electrons.

A. n=2, l=1 then 2 x 1 + 1= 3 subshell, 3*2= 6 electrons in the p subshell

b. 3d, d is l = 2 then 2 x 2 + 1 = 5 sublevels, 5*2=10 electrons in the d subshell

c. 4s, s is l=0 then 2 x 0 + 1 = 1 sublevel, 1*2=2 electrons in the s subshell.

Why do scientific theories change?

Sergio039 [100]

Scientific theories change because theories may be modified or overturned as new evidence and perspective emerges. ... The process of theory change may take time and involve controversy, but eventually the scientific explanation that is more accurate will be accepted. Hoped you get it!

Answer:

pH = 6.999

The solution is acidic.

Explanation:

HBr is a strong acid, a very strong one.

In water, this acid is totally dissociated.

HBr + H₂O → H₃O⁺ + Br⁻

We can think pH, as - log 7.75×10⁻¹² but this is 11.1

acid pH can't never be higher than 7.

We apply the charge balance:

[H⁺] = [Br⁻] + [OH⁻]

All the protons come from the bromide and the OH⁻ that come from water.

We can also think [OH⁻] = Kw / [H⁺] so:

[H⁺] = [Br⁻] + Kw / [H⁺]

Now, our unknown is [H⁺]

[H⁺] = 7.75×10⁻¹² + 1×10⁻¹⁴ / [H⁺]

[H⁺] = (7.75×10⁻¹² [H⁺] + 1×10⁻¹⁴) / [H⁺]

This is quadratic equation: [H⁺]² - 7.75×10⁻¹² [H⁺] - 1×10⁻¹⁴

a = 1 ; b = - 7.75×10⁻¹² ; c = -1×10⁻¹⁴

(-b +- √(b² - 4ac) / (2a)

[H⁺] = 1.000038751×10⁻⁷

- log [H⁺] = pH → 6.999

A very strong acid as HBr, in this case, it is so diluted that its pH is almost neutral.
