Two voltaic cells are to be joined so that one will run the other as an electrolytic cell. In the first cell, one half-cell has

vladimir1956 [14]

Au/Cr cell will run as a voltaic cell and Co/Zn cell will run as an electrolytic cell.

<h3>What is an electrolytic cell?</h3>

An electrolytic cell that uses electrical energy to enable a non-spontaneous redox reaction is known as an electrolytic cell.

Certain chemicals can be electrolyzed using electrolytic cells, which are electrochemical cells.

For example, water can be electrolyzed to create gaseous oxygen and gaseous hydrogen with the use of an electrolytic cell.

The following are the three essential parts of electrolytic cells:

Cathode (which is negatively charged for electrolytic cells)

Anode (which is positively charged for electrolytic cells)

Electrolyte

The reactions for each half cell is given by

$Au^{3+}(aq) + 3e^- \rightleftharpoons Au(s)$ ; E° = 1.50 V

$Cr^{3+}(aq) + 3e^- \rightleftharpoons Cr(s)$ ; E° = –0.74 V

$Co^{2+}(aq) + 2e^- \rightleftharpoons Co(s)$ ; E° = –0.28 V

$Zn^{2+}(aq) + 2e^- \rightleftharpoons Zn(s)$ ; E° = –0.76 V

When the Au/Cr cell will run as a voltaic cell and Co/Zn cell will run as an electrolytic cell, the a difference in the voltages is produced

$E^o_{series} = E^o_{Au/Cr} - E^o_{Co/Zn}$ = 2.24 V – 0.48 V = 1.76 V

Latent heat is used to: 1. form chemical bonds. 2. change molecular structure. 3. change states of matter. 4. change the tempera

likoan [24]

Answer : The correct option is, (3) change states of matter.

Explanation :

Latent heat : It is defined as the heat required to convert the solid into liquid or vapor and a liquid into a vapor without changing the temperature.

There are two types of latent heat.

(1) Latent heat of fusion

(2) Latent heat of vaporization

Latent heat of fusion : It is defined as the amount of heat energy released or absorbed when the solid converted to liquid at atmospheric pressure at its melting point.

Latent heat of vaporization : It is defined as the amount of heat energy released or absorbed when the liquid converted to vapor at atmospheric pressure at its boiling point.

Hence, latent heat is used to change states of matter.

Why is dissolving important??

Irina18 [472]

Water is called the "universal solvent" because it is capable of dissolving more substances than any other liquid. This is important to every living thing on earth. It means that wherever water goes, either through the air, the ground, or through our bodies, it takes along valuable chemicals, minerals, and nutrients.

Convert 7.1x10^25 molecules of water to moles

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

<h2>117.94 moles</h2>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

$n = \frac{N}{L} \\$

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

$n = \frac{7.1 \times {10}^{25} }{6.02 \times {10}^{23} } \\ = 117.940199...$

We have the final answer as

<h3>117.94 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you
