<u>Question:</u>

For the cell constructed from the hydrogen electrode and metal-insoluble salt electrode, B) calculate the mean activity coefficient for 0.124 b HCl solution if E=0.342 V at 298 K

<u>Answer:</u>

The mean activity coefficient for HCl solution is 0.78.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Activity coefficient is defined as the ratio of any chemical activity of any substance with its molar concentration. So in an electrochemical cell, we can write activity coefficient as γ. The equation for determining the mean activity coefficient is

              E=E_{0}-0.0514 \mathrm{V} \ln \gamma

As we know that E_{0} = 0.22 V and E = 0.342 V, the equation will become

             0.342 V+0.0514 V \ln (0.124)=0.22 V-0.0514 V \ln \gamma

             0.342 V-0.222 V=-0.0514 V(\ln \gamma+\ln 0.124)

             0.12 \mathrm{V}=-0.0514 \mathrm{V}(\ln \gamma+\ln 0.124)

             \frac{0.12}{0.0514}=-\ln (0.124 \gamma)

             -2.3346=\ln (0.124 \gamma)

             e^{-2.3346}=0.124 \gamma

             0.0968=0.124 \gamma

             \gamma=\frac{0.0968}{0.124}=0.78

So, the mean activity coefficient is 0.78.

Arrange the compounds in order of decreasing magnitude of lattice energy:
Alik [6]

Answer:

The correct answer is CaO > LiBr > KI.

Explanation:

Lattice energy is directly proportional to the charge and is inversely proportional to the size. The compound LiBr comprises Li+ and Br- ions, KI comprises K+ and I- ions, and CaO comprise Ca²⁺ and O²⁻ ions.  

With the increase in the charge, there will be an increase in lattice energy. In the given case, the lattice energy of CaO will be the highest due to the presence of +2 and -2 ions. K⁺ ions are larger than Li⁺ ion, and I⁻ ions are larger than Br⁻ ion.  

The distance between Li⁺ and Br⁻ ions in LiBr is less in comparison to the distance between K⁺ and I⁻ ions in KI. As a consequence, the lattice energy of LiBr is greater than KI. Therefore, CaO exhibits the largest lattice energy, while KI the smallest.

Which event would be impossible to explain by using John Dalton’s model of the atom?
Dvinal [7]
<span>Dalton's atomic theory proposed that all matter was composed of atoms, indivisible and indestructible building blocks. While all atoms of an element were identical, different elements had atoms of differing size and mass. Dalton also stated that all compounds were composed of combinations of these atoms in defined ratios. He postulated that chemical reactions resulted in the rearrangement of the reacting atom.

2. Explain why atoms of the same element are not all identical.

They are not always identical because they have different isotope numbers which develops different neutrons numbers

What is one characteristic of a rain forest?
Svetradugi [14.3K]
Different layers makes the most sense due to the fact it can’t be a dry climate because of the vegetation, also there is a lot of plants so minimal plants isn’t an option, and the temperature in a rain forest is usually very humid so cold temperatures can’t be an answer.
