The anode is the metal that is higher on the list because it is more easily oxidized.

Viefleur [7K]3 years ago

Answer:  The anode is the metal that is higher on the list because it is more easily oxidized.

Explanation: The Anode of the voltaic cell is the electrode on which the process of oxidation takes place.

Oxidation is the process in which highly reactive metal which is higher in the electrochemical series loses electrons which goes into the solution.

Thus The anode is the metal that is higher on the list because it is more easily oxidized.

For eg- In a reaction cell of Copper-Iron, Iron(Fe) will get oxidized because it is placed higher in the electrochemical series whereas Copper(Cu) will get reduced.

Please help me with this.<br><br><br>And show all work as well ASAP!!​
qaws [65]

Answer: The partial pressure of oxygen is 187 torr.

Explanation:

According to Raoult's law, the partial pressure of a component at a given temperature is equal to the mole fraction of that component multiplied by the total pressure.

p_1=x_1p_{total}  

where, x = mole fraction  

p_{total} = total pressure  

x_{oxygen}=\frac{\text {moles of oxygen}}{\text {total moles}},  

x_{oxygen}=\frac{3.0}{12.33}=0.243,  

p_{oxygen}=0.243\times 770torr=187torr  

Thus the partial pressure of oxygen is 187 torr.

Which statement best describes why carbon can form a wide variety of organic compounds?
marishachu [46]
Carbon can form a wide variety of organic compounds because:

Each carbon atom covalently bonds with toms of carbon, hydrogen oxygen, and nitrogen

A carbon atom can have 4 single valence electrons around it. This allows it to form covalent bonds with many different atoms.

Is it possible to change the strength of an acid? Explain how you would do this.
Verdich [7]

Answer:

Reducing or increasing the amount of H+ ions / hydronium (H3O+) ions

Explanation:

To reduce the pH (reducing the strength of the acid) can be done by adding a base (including a conjugate base such as bicarbonate ion) which will absorb the H+ ions either through adsorption or reaction.

Adding more H+ decreases the pH of the acid making it stronger. This can be done by adding HCL that will dissociate and increase the H+ ions.

Which acid/base pair will give an equivalence point that cannot be predicted solely by a general knowledge of acid and base stre
sleet_krkn [62]

The acid/base pair that give equivalence point that Cannot be predicted by general knowledge is NaOH and HCI ONH.

<h3>What is an Acid and base?</h3>

An Acid is a substances that is corrosive in nature and turn blue lithmus paper to red which it react with base to produce salt and water.

Acid dissolve metals.

Base is a substance that turn red lihthmus paper to blue and react with acid to produce salt and water.

Therefore, The acid/base pair that give equivalence point that Cannot be predicted by general knowledge is NaOH and HCI ONH.

The question is incomplete as the options were not given. The options were gotten from another website.

Select the correct answer below:

ONaOH and HCI ONH,

HC ONH, and CH, COOH

NaOH and Christmas, COOH
