A redox reaction --> a reaction whereby oxidation & reduction occurs
Reduction:
Charge of Cl2 = 0
Charge of Cl- in NaCl = -1
Hence, since charge of Cl2 decreased from 0 in Cl2 to -1 in NaCl, reduction occured.
Oxidation:
Charge of Na = 0
Charge of Na+ in NaCl = +1
Hence, since charge of Na increased from 0 in Na to +1 in NaCl, oxidation occured.
Since both oxidation & reduction occured in the reaction, it is a redox reaction.

Tarnish on copper is the compound CuO. A tarnished copper plate is placed in an aluminum pan of boiling water. When enough salt

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

The standard cell potential is 2.00 V

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Cu is cathode because of higher EP

Al3++3e−→Al E∘=−1.66 V anode

Cu2++2e−→Cu E∘=0.340 V cathode

Step 2: Balance both equations

2*(Al → Al3+-3e−) E∘=1.66 V

3*(Cu2++2e−→Cu) E∘=0.340 V

Step 3: The netto equation

2 Al + 3Cu2+ +6e- → 2Al3+ + 3Cu -6e-

2 Al + 3Cu2+ → 2Al3+ + 3Cu

Step 4: Calculate the standard cell potential

E∘cell = E∘cathode - E∘anode

E∘cell = E∘ Cu2+/Cu - E∘ Al3+/Al

E∘cell =0.340 V - (-1.66) = 2.00 V

The standard cell potential is 2.00 V

How are energy and work related? A. Energy is the force needed to do work B. Work times energy is force C. Energy is the capacit

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

I believe the answer is A

Explanation:

Work and energy are related because when you work, you cause displacement in the object you are exerting upon. While this happens, you transfer energy between the systems. Both work and energy share the same SI unit, called the joule.
