In which direction did the following equilibrium shift when it was placed in the hot water bath? [CoCl4] 2- (aq) + 6H2O (l) ⇌ [C

3 0

Answer:

The equilibrium position will shift towards the lefthand side.

Explanation:

[CoCl4] 2- (aq) + 6H2O (l) ⇌ [Co(H2O)6] 2+ (aq) + 4 Cl- (aq)

The equation written above in exothermic as written. That is, the forward reaction is exothermic. The equilibrium position is observable by monitoring the colour change of the solution. At the left hand side, the solution is blue but at the right hand side the solution is pink. Addition of heat (in a hot water bath) will shift the equilibrium towards the left hand side, that is formation of more [CoCl4] 2- making the solution to appear blue in colour.

300 moles of sodium nitrite are needed for a reaction. the solution is 0.450 m. how many ml are needed?
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{667 000 mL}}

Explanation:

\text{Molar concentration} = \dfrac{\text{moles}}{\text{litres}}\\\\c = \dfrac{n}{v}

Data:

c = 0.450 mol·L⁻¹

n = 300 mol

Calculation:

\begin{array}{rcl}0.450 & = & \dfrac{300}{V}\\\\0.450V& = & 300\\\\V & = & \dfrac{300}{0.450}\\\\V & = & \text{667 L} =\textbf{667 000 mL}\end{array}\\\text{The volume of solution needed is }\boxed{\textbf{667 000 mL}}

What is oxidized in a galvanic cell with aluminum and gold electrodes ?
k0ka [10]

Answer:

Aluminum metal

Explanation:

In order to properly answer this or a similar question, we need to know some basic rules about galvanic cells and standard reduction potentials.

First of all, your strategy would be to find a trusted source or the table of standard reduction potentials. You would then need to find the half-equations for aluminum and gold reduction:

Al^{3+}+3e^-\rightarrow Al; E^o=-1.66 V

Au^{3+}+3e^-\rightarrow Au; E^o=1.50 V

Since we have a galvanic cell, the overall reaction is spontaneous. A spontaneous reaction indicates that the overall cell potential should be positive.

Since one half-equation should be an oxidation reaction (oxidation is loss of electrons) and one should be a reduction reaction (reduction is gain of electrons), one of these should be reversed.

Thinking simply, if the overall cell potential would be obtained by adding the two potentials, in order to acquite a positive number in the sum of potentials, we may only reverse the half-equation of aluminum (this would change the sign of E to positive):Al\rightarrow Al^{3+}+3e^-; E^o=1.66 V\\Au^{3+}+3e^-\rightarrow Au; E^o=1.50 V

Notice that the overall cell potential upon summing is:

E_{cell}=1.66 V + 1.50 V=3.16 V

Meaning we obey the law of galvanic cells.

Since oxidation is loss of electrons, notice that the loss of electrons takes place in the half-equation of aluminum: solid aluminum electrode loses 3 electrons to become aluminum cation.

Zinc blende, or sphalerite, can be described as having a face-centered cubic unit cell with sulfur atoms at each lattice point a
g100num [7]

Answer:

ZnS  

Explanation:

1. Number of Zn atoms

4 internal atoms = 4 Zn atoms

2. Number of S atoms

8 corners × ⅛ S atom/corner + 6 faces × ½ S atom/face = 1 S atom + 3 S atoms = 4 S atoms

3. Empirical formula

The atomic ratio is

4Zn:4S = 1Zn:1S

The empirical formula is ZnS.

An element with 11 neutrons, 11 protons, and 11 electrons would have a mass number o?
vova2212 [387]

The mass number of element  is 22.

The mass number is the sum of number of electrons/proton and number of neutron .

Mass number = number of proton/electron + number of neutrons

If an element with 11 neutrons, 11 protons, and 11 electrons then mass number is calculated as,

Mass number = number of proton/electron + number of neutrons

Mass number = 11 + 11 = 22
