Answer : The 'Ag' is produced at the cathode electrode and 'Cu' is produced at anode electrode under standard conditions.

Explanation :

Galvanic cell : It is defined as a device which is used for the conversion of the chemical energy produces in a redox reaction into the electrical energy. It is also known as the voltaic cell or electrochemical cell.

In the galvanic cell, the oxidation occurs at an anode which is a negative electrode and the reduction occurs at the cathode which is a positive electrode.

We are taking the value of standard reduction potential form the standard table.

E^0_{[Ag^{+}/Ag]}=+0.80V

E^0_{[Cu^{2+}/Cu]}=+0.34V

In this cell, the component that has lower standard reduction potential gets oxidized and that is added to the anode electrode. The second forms the cathode electrode.

The balanced two-half reactions will be,

Oxidation half reaction (Anode) : Cu(s)\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq)+2e^-

Reduction half reaction (Cathode) : Ag^{+}(aq)+e^-\rightarrow Ag(s)

Thus the overall reaction will be,

Cu(s)+2Ag^{+}(aq)\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq)+2Ag(s)

From this we conclude that, 'Ag' is produced at the cathode electrode and 'Cu' is produced at anode electrode under standard conditions.

Hence, the 'Ag' is produced at the cathode electrode and 'Cu' is produced at anode electrode under standard conditions.

What is the product if an atom of Po-209<br> undergoes alpha decay?
g100num [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Lead-205 (Pb-205)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • An atom of Po-209

We are supposed to identify its product after an alpha decay;

  • Polonium-209 has a mass number of 209 and an atomic number of 84.
  • When an element undergoes an alpha decay, the mass number decreases by 4 while the atomic number decreases by 2.
  • Therefore, when Po-209 undergoes alpha decay it results to the formation of a product with a mass number of 205 and atomic number of 82.
  • The product from this decay is Pb-205, because Pb-205 has a mass number of 205 and atomic number 82.
  • The equation for the decay is;

²⁰⁹₈₄Po → ²⁰⁵₈₂Pb + ⁴₂He

  • Note; An alpha particle is represented by a helium nucleus, ⁴₂He.

The genetic material of all organisms;made up of two twisted strands in a double helix
viva [34]
Hello!

The genetic material of all organisms which is made up of two twisted strands in a double helix is called DNA (DeoxyriboNucleic Acid)

DNA 
is the basis of all genetic information. It contains all instructions for the development and functioning of all living organisms and some viruses. The main function of DNA is the long-term storage of information to build other cell components like Proteins and RNA. It is composed of two strands with 4 possible bases which are Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Cytosine (C) and Guanine (G).
