Answer:

0.193 M

Explanation:

We need to calculate the Zn²⁺ concentration at the cathode where reduction occurs which is the right side in the expression:

Zn2+(aq,0.100 M) ‖ Zn2+(aq,? M) | Zn(s)

Zn²⁺ (aq,?) + 2 e⁻   ⇒ Zn (s)

and oxidation will occur in the anode

Zn (s) ⇒ Zn²⁺ (aq, 0.100 M ) + 2 e⁻

and the overall reaction is

Zn²⁺ (aq,?) ⇒ Zn²⁺ (0.100 M )

The driving force is the difference in concentration and E the electromotive force will be given by

E = Eº - 0.0592/2 log [Zn²⁺ (0.100 M) / Zn²⁺ (M) ]

Plugging the value for E and knowing Eº is cero because we have the same electrodes, we have

17.0 x 10⁻³ = 0 - 0.0592 log 0.100/ X =

- 17.0 x 10⁻³ / 0.0592 = log 0.100 / X

- 0.287 = log (0.100 / X)

Taking inverse log to both sides of the equation

0.516 = 0.100 / X   ⇒ X = 0.100 / 0.516 = 0.193 M

Aluminum chloride can be formed from its elements:
saul85 [17]

<u>Answer:</u> The \Deltas H^o_{formation} for the reaction is -1406.8 kJ.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Hess’s law of constant heat summation states that the amount of heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation remains the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation is treated as ordinary algebraic expressions and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. This means that the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is equal to the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The chemical reaction for the formation reaction of AlCl_3 is:

2Al(s)+3Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2AlCl_3 (s)    \Delta H^o_{formation}=?

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction are:

(1) HCl(g)\rightarrow HCl(aq.)    \Delta H_1=-74.8kJ    ( ×  6)

(2) H_2(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2HCl(g)    \Delta H_2=-185kJ     ( ×  3)

(3) AlCl_3(aq.)\rightarrow AlCl_3(s)    \Delta H_3=+323kJ     ( ×  2)

(4) 2Al(s)+6HCl(aq.)\rightarrow 2AlCl_3(aq.)+3H_2(g)    \Delta H_4=-1049kJ

The expression for enthalpy of formation of AlCl_3 is,

\Delta H^o_{formation}=[6\times \Delta H_1]+[3\times \Delta H_2]+[2\times \Delta H_3]+[1\times \Delta H_4]

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta H^o_{formation}=[(-74.8\times 6)+(-185\times 3)+(323\times 2)+(-1049\times 1)]=-1406.8kJ

Hence, the \Deltas H^o_{formation} for the reaction is -1406.8 kJ.

What volume would 3.01•1023 molecules of oxygen gas occupy at STP?
Sliva [168]
First, find moles of oxygen gas: (3.01 x10^23 molec.)/(6.02 x10^23) =0.5mol O2


Second, multiply moles by the standard molar volume of a gas at STP:(0.5mol)(22.4L) = 11.2L O2
