Answer:
fewer collisions occur between particles or lowering the temperature
Explanation:
Answer:
When an atom loses electron(s) it will lose some of its negative charge and so becomes positively charged. A positive ion is formed where an atom has more protons than electrons. In the opposite case when an atom gains electron(s) it becomes negatively charged (more electrons than protons).
Explanation:
a) First, to get ΔG°rxn we have to use this formula when:
ΔG° = - RT ㏑ K
when ΔG° is Gibbs free energy
and R is the constant = 8.314 J/mol K
and T is the temperature in Kelvin = 25 °C+ 273 = 298 K
and when K = 4.4 x 10^-2
so, by substitution:
ΔG°= - 8.314 * 298 *㏑(4.4 x 10^-2)
= -7739 J = -7.7 KJ
b) then, to get E° cell for a redox reaction we have to use this formula:
ΔE° Cell = (RT / nF) ㏑K
when R is a constant = 8.314 J/molK
and T is the temperature in Kelvin = 25°C + 273 = 298 K
and n = no.of moles of e- from the balanced redox reaction= 3
and F is Faraday constant = 96485 C/mol
and K = 4.4 x 10^-2
so, by substitution:
∴ ΔE° cell = (8.314 * 298 / 3* 96485) *㏑(4.4 x 10^-2)
= - 2.7 x 10^-2 V
