What is theWhat is the approximate tilt of the earth's axis? approximate tilt of the earth's axis?

Chemistry

Earth's axis is tilted 23.5 degrees from the plane of its orbit around the sun.


But this tilt changes. During a cycle that averages about 40,000 years, the tilt of the axis varies between 22.1 and 24.5 degrees.

A voltaic cell made of a Cr electrode in a solution of 1.0 M in Cr3+ and a gold electrode in a solution that is 1.0 M in Au3+.
Vikki [24]

Answer: a) Anode: Cr\rightarrow Cr^{3+}+3e^-

Cathode: Au{3+}+3e^-\rightarrow Au

b) Anode : Cr

Cathode : Au

c) Au^{3+}+Cr\rightarrow Au+Cr^{3+}

d) E_{cell}=2.14V

Explanation: - 

a) The element Cr with negative reduction potential will lose electrons undergo oxidation and thus act as anode.The element Au with positive reduction potential will gain electrons undergo reduction and thus acts as cathode.

At cathode: Au{3+}+3e^-\rightarrow Au

At anode: Cr\rightarrow Cr^{3+}+3e^-

b) At cathode which is a positive terminal, reduction occurs which is gain of electrons.

At anode which is a negative terminal, oxidation occurs which is loss of electrons.

Gold acts as cathode ad Chromium acts as anode.

c) Overall balanced equation:

At cathode: Au{3+}+3e^-\rightarrow Au     (1)

At anode: Cr\rightarrow Cr^{3+}+3e^-        (2)

Adding (1) and (2)

Au^{3+}+Cr\rightarrow Au+Cr^{3+}

d)E^0_(Cr^{3+}/Cr)= -0.74 V

E^0_(Au^{3+}/Au)= 1.40 V  

E^0{cell}=E^0{cathode}-E^0{anode}=1.40-(-0.74)=2.14V

Using Nernst equation :

E_{cell}=E^o_{cell}-\frac{0.0592}{n}\log \frac{[Au^{3+}]}{[Cr^{3+}]^}

where,

n = number of electrons in oxidation-reduction reaction = 3

E^o_{cell} = standard electrode potential = 2.14 V

E_{cell}=2.14-\frac{0.0592}{3}\log \frac{[1.0}{[1.0]}

E_{cell}=2.14

Thus the standard potential for an electrochemical cell with the cell reaction is 2.14 V.

Lewis plot structure of Ca
Anna [14]

Answer:

Ca:

Explanation:

A Lewis structure shows the number of valence electrons about an atom.

Ca is in Group 2 of Period 4.

Its electron configuration is [Ar]4s².

Thus, Ca has two valence electrons and its Lewis structure is Ca:
