An electrochemical cell has the following standard cell notation.

Chemistry

icang [17]2 years ago
7 0

The cell notation is:

Mg(s)|Mg^{+2}(aq)||Ag^{+}(aq)|Ag(s)

here in cell notation the left side represent the anodic half cell where right side represents the cathodic half cell

in anodic half cell : oxidation takes place [loss of electrons]

in cathodic half cell: reduction takes place [gain of electrons]

1) this is a galvanic cell

2) the standard potential of cell will be obtained by subtracting the standard reduction potential of anode from cathode

E^{0}_{Mg}=-2.38V

E^{0}_{Ag}=+0.80V

Therefore

E^{0}_{cell}=0.80-(-2.38)=+3.18V

3) as the value of emf is positive the reaction will be spontaneous as the free energy change of reaction will be negative

ΔG^{0}=-nFE^{0}

As reaction is spontaneous and there will be conversion of chemical energy to electrical energy it is a galvanic cell.

Find the age t of a sample, if the total mass of carbon in the sample is mc, the activity of the sample is a, the current ratio
Paha777 [63]
N₀ is the number of C-14 atoms per kg of carbon in the original sample at time = Os when its carbon was of the same kind as that present in the atmosphere today. After time ts, due to radioactive decay, the number of C-14 atoms per kg of carbon is the same sample which has decreased to N. λ is the radioactive decay constant.
Therefore N = N₀e-λt which is the radioactive decay equation,
N₀/N = eλt In (N₀.N= λt. This is the equation 1
The mass of carbon which is present in the sample os mc kg. So the sample has a radioactivity of A/mc decay is/kg. r is the mass of C-14 in original sample at t= 0 per total mass of carbon in a sample which is equal to [(total number of C-14 atoms in the sample at t m=m 0) × ma]/ total mass of carbon in the sample.
Now that the total number of C-14 atoms in the sample at t= 0/ total mass of carbon in sample = N₀ then r = N₀×ma
So N₀ = r/ma. this equation 2.
 The activity of the radioactive substance is directly proportional to the number of atoms present at the time.
Activity = A number of decays/ sec = dN/dt = λ(number of atoms of C-14 present at time t) = 
λ₁(N×mc). By rearranging we get N = A/(λmc) this is equation 3.
By plugging in equation 2 and 3 and solve t to get
t = 1/λ In (rλmc/m₀A).

Suppose you had four spoons the same size and shape made out of glass, plastic, steel, and wood. Which spoon handle would get ho
Burka [1]

Answer:

A. steel spoon

Explanation:

A steel spoon will get hot the quickest from the different given spoon. This is because steel is predominantly made up of a metal which shows metallic properties such as heat conduction.

  • Metals have low specific heat capacity which is the amount of head needed to raise 1g of a substance by 1°C.
  • By so doing, metals will conduct heat at a very fast rate.
  • The delocalized electron around the central nucleus plays very important role.

Other properties originating from metallic bonds are ductility, malleability, luster etc.
