An electrochemical cell has the following standard cell notation.

Chemistry
1 answer:
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.

How many moles of magnesium, Mg, are there in 4.75 grams of magnesium?
Nina [5.8K]
Molar mass Mg = 24.3 g/mol

1 mole mg ------------ 24.3 g
?? moles mg --------- 4.75 g

4.75 x 1 / 24.3 => 0.195 moles of Mg

What compound is formed when methyloxirane (1,2-epoxypropane) is reacted with ethylmagnesium bromide followed by treatment with
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Pentan-2-ol

Explanation:

On this reaction, we have a <u>Grignard reagent</u> (ethylmagnesium bromide), therefore we will have the production of a <u>carbanion</u> (step 1). Then this carbanion can <u>attack the least substituted carbon</u> in the epoxide in this case carbon 1 (step 2). In this step, the epoxide is open and a negative charge is generated in the oxygen. The next step, is the <u>treatment with aqueous acid</u>, when we add acid the <u>hydronium ion</u> (H^+)  would be produced, so in the reaction mechanism, we can put the hydronium ion. This ion would be <u>attacked by the negative charge</u> produced in the second step to produce the final molecule: <u>"Pentan-2-ol".</u>

See figure 1

I hope it helps!

The weather report says that if the temperature drops 10°, it will reach 25° below zero. The current temperature T can be found
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The current temperature is -15° (15° below zero)

Explanation:

The temperature drops 10°:

T-10°

It will reach 25° below zero:

T - 10° = -25°

We add 10° in both members of the equation:

T - 10° +10° = -25° +10°

The equation is simplified as follows:

T = -25° +10°

T = -15°

The integer -15° can be expressed as 15° below zero.

Why is pure silicon a poor conductor at room temperature?
Georgia [21]
Because pure silicon is a perfect semiconductor.

For room temperature, it rarely conducts, you can search for the threshold temperature, the characteristic equation is fairly complicated.

What is the number of electrons shared between the atoms in a molecule of nitrogen, N2
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

3 electrons is contributed from each Nitrogen atom.

Total 6 electrons are shared in N₂.

Explanation:

  • Nitrogen is belong to group VA
  • it have 5 electron in its outer most Shell.
  • it need 3 electrons complete its octet to become stable.
  • Nitrogen have total 7 electrons.
  • its atomic number is 7

The electronic configuration of Nitrogen is as:

1s², 2s², 2p³

it exist in diatomic form standard temperature and pressure.

Nitrogen form covalent bond and share 3 electron from each side.

total 6 electron are shared between 2 nitrogen atom.

For Covalent bonding it can share its 3 electrons.  

The diagrammatic representation is in attachment.
