Answer:
0.48 V
Explanation:
Zn(s) ------------> Zn^2+(aq) + 2e. Oxidation half equation (-0.76V)
Co^2+(aq) + 2e-----------> Co(s). Reduction half equation (-0.28)
Zn(s) + Co^2+(aq) -------------> Zn^2+(aq) + Co(s) overall redox equation
Zinc is the anode while cobalt is the cathode.
E°cell= E°cathode - E°anode
E°cell= -0.28-(-0.76)= 0.48 V
Answer:
identical conditions, separate samples of O2 and an unknown gas were allowed to effuse through identical membranes simultaneously. After a certain amount of time, it was found that 6.23 mL of O2 had passed through the membrane, but only 3.85 mL of of the unknown gas had passed through. What is the molar mass of the unknown gas

Answer: 1.19 V
Explanation:
Standard potential for an electrochemical cell is given by:
= standard electrode potential =
The 
values have to be reduction potentials.
Given:
Cadmium is losing electrons , undergo oxidation and thus act as anode. mercury is gaining electrons, undergo reduction and thus acts as cathode.
= standard electrode potential =
Thus the standard potential for an electrochemical cell with the cell reaction is 1.19 V.
