Answer:

Molecules in an ice cube have lower kinetic energy than molecules in a radiator. Molecules in an ice cube move more slowly than molecules in a radiator. They collide with less force than molecules in a radiator.

The standard reduction potentials of the following half-reactions are given in Appendix E in the textbook:

german

Answer:

For 1: The largest positive cell potential is of cell having 1st and 4th half reactions.

For 2: The standard electrode potential of the cell is 1.539 V

For 3: The smallest positive cell potential is of cell having 3rd and 4th half reactions. The standard electrode potential of the cell is 0.46 V

Explanation:

The substance having highest positive $E^o$ potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction.

We are given:

$Ag^++(aq.)+e^-\rightarrow Ag(s);E^o_{Ag^+/Ag}=0.799V\\\\Cu^{2+}+(aq.)+2e^-\rightarrow Cu(s);E^o_{Cu^{2+}/Cu}=0.337V\\\\Ni^{2+}(aq.)+2e^-\rightarrow Ni(s);E^o_{Ni^{2+}/Ni}=-0.28V\\\\Cr^{3+}(aq.)+3e^-\rightarrow Cr(s);E^o_{Cr^{3+}/Cr}=-0.74V$

Substance getting oxidized always act as anode and the one getting reduced always act as cathode.

To calculate the $E^o_{cell}$ of the reaction, we use the equation:

$E^o_{cell}=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}$

Cell having 1st and 2nd half reactions:

Silver has higher electrode potential. So, this will undergo reduction reaction and act as anode. Copper will undergo oxidation reaction and act as cathode.

$E^o_{cell}=0.799-0.337=0.462V$

Cell having 1st and 3rd half reactions:

Silver has higher electrode potential. So, this will undergo reduction reaction and act as anode. Nickel will undergo oxidation reaction and act as cathode.

$E^o_{cell}=0.799-(-0.28)=1.079V$

Cell having 1st and 4th half reactions:

Silver has higher electrode potential. So, this will undergo reduction reaction and act as anode. Chromium will undergo oxidation reaction and act as cathode.

$E^o_{cell}=0.799-(-0.74)=1.539V$

Cell having 2nd and 3rd half reactions:

Copper has higher electrode potential. So, this will undergo reduction reaction and act as anode. Nickel will undergo oxidation reaction and act as cathode.

$E^o_{cell}=0.337-(-0.28)=0.617V$

Cell having 3rd and 4th half reactions:

Nickel has higher electrode potential. So, this will undergo reduction reaction and act as anode. Chromium will undergo oxidation reaction and act as cathode.

$E^o_{cell}=-0.28-(-0.74)=0.46V$

Hence,

For 1: The largest positive cell potential is of cell having 1st and 4th half reactions.

For 2: The standard electrode potential of the cell is 1.539 V

For 3: The smallest positive cell potential is of cell having 3rd and 4th half reactions. The standard electrode potential of the cell is 0.46 V
