The correct answer is false. Chemical equations are balanced not by changing the subscripts of the molecules instead by changing the coefficients of each molecule. However, the subscripts are helpful in balancing equations because they are used in counting the number of atoms or molecules.

How much heat in j is giving out when 85.0g of lead cools from 200.0 c to 10.0c

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

q = - 2067.2 J of Heat is giving out when 85.0g of lead cools from 200.0 c to 10.0 c.

Explanation:

The Specific Heat capacity of Lead is 0.128 $\frac{J}{g\ ^{0}C}$

This means, increase in temperature of 1 gm of lead by $1 ^{0}\ C$ will require 0.128 J of heat.

Formula Used :

$q = m.c.\Delta T$

q = amount of heat added / removed

m = mass of substance in grams = 85.0 g

c = specific heat of the substance = 0.128

$q = m.c.\Delta T$ = Change in temperature

= final temperature - Initial temperature

= 10 - 200

= - $190 ^{0}\ C$

put value in formula

q = - $85\times 0.128\times 190$

On calculation,

q = - 2067.2 J

- sign indicates that the heat is released in the process

How many electrons would be transferred in either a voltaic or electrolytic cell that uses the following half reactions

omeli [17]

Answer:

Numbers of electrons transferred in the electrolytic or voltaic cell is 6 electrons.

Explanation:

$Fe^{3+} (aq) + 3 e^-\rightarrow Fe (s) ,E^o = -0.036 V$

$Mg^{2+}(aq) + 2 e^- \rightarrow Mg (s),E^o = -2.37 V$

The substance having highest positive reduction $E^o$ potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction.

Reduction : cathode

$Fe^{3+} (aq) + 3 e^-\rightarrow Fe (s) ,E^o = -0.036 V$ ..[1]

Oxidation: anode

$Mg(s)\rightarrow Mg^{2+}(aq) + 2 e^-,E^o = 2.37 V$ ..[2]

Oxidation reaction occurs at anode and reduction reaction occurs at cathode.

To calculate the $E^o_{cell}$ of the reaction, we use the equation:

$E^o_{cell}=E^o_{red,cathode}-E^o_{red,anode}$

$E^o_{cell}=-0.036V-(-2.37 V)=2.334 V$

The overall reaction will be:

2 × [1] + 3 × [2] :

$2Fe^{3+} (aq) + 3Mg(s)+6e^-\rightarrow 2Fe (s)+3Mg^{2+}(aq)+6e^-$

Electrons on both sides will get cancelled :

$2Fe^{3+} (aq) + 3Mg(s)\rightarrow 2Fe (s)+3Mg^{2+}(aq)$

Numbers of electrons transferred in the electrolytic or voltaic cell is 6 electrons.

What is the pH of a 2.5 x 10-5 M solution of HCI?

aalyn [17]

Answer:

The pH of the solution is 4.60.

Explanation:

The pH gives us an idea of the acidity or basicity of a solution. More precisely, it indicates the concentration of H30 + ions present in said solution. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14: from 0 to 7 corresponds to acid solutions, 7 neutral solutions and between 7 and 14 basic solutions. It is calculated as:

pH = -log (H30 +)

pH= -log (2,5 x 10-5)

pH=4.60
