Answer:
84.24 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of oxygen = 75 g
Mass of Al required to react = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
4Al + 3O₂ → 2Al₂O₃
Number of moles of oxygen:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 75 g/ 32 g/mol
Number of moles = 2.34 mol
Now we will compare the moles of oxygen with Al.
O₂ : Al
3 : 4
2.34 : 4/3×2.34 = 3.12 mol
Mass of Al required:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 3.12 mol × 27 g/mol
Mass = 84.24 g

Answer:
Explanation:
To calculate the cell potential we use the relation:
Eº cell = Eº oxidation + Eº reduction
Now in order to determine which of the species is going to be oxidized, we have to remember that the more the value of the reduction potential is negative, the greater its tendency to be oxidized is. In electrochemistry we use the values of the reductions potential in the tables for simplicity because the only thing we need to do is change the sign of the reduction potential for the oxized species .
So the species that is going to be oxidized is the Aluminium, and therefore:
Eº cell = -( -1.66 V ) + 0.340 V = 5.06 V
Equally valid is to write the equation as:
Eº cell = Eº reduction for the reduced species - Eº reduction for the oxidized species
These two expressions are equivalent, choose the one you fell more comfortable but be careful with the signs.

Calcium iodide (CaI2) is an ionic bond, which means that electrons are transferred. In order for Ca to become the ion Ca2+, the calcium atom must lose 2 electrons. (Electrons have a negative charge, so when an atom loses 2 electrons, its ion becomes more positive.) In order for I to become the ion I1−, the iodine atom must gain 1 electron. (When an atom gains an electron, its ion will be more negative.) However, the formula for calcium iodide is CaI2 - there are 2 iodine ions present. This makes sense because the iodine ion has a charge of -1, so two iodine ions have to be present to cancel out the +2 charge of the calcium ion. Therefore, the calcium atom transfers 2 valence electrons, one to each iodine atom, to form the ionic bond.
