Answer: Na or Ca?

Explanation:

Answer:

Calcium will be the anode and sodium will be the cathode

Explanation:

I know that your confusion stems from the relative positions of the two metals in the activity series but I want you to get something clearly. Sodium metal is more reactive than calcium metal but calcium ion is more reactive (a better reducing agent) than the sodium ion.

Hence, in an electrochemical cell, a better reducing agent will function as the anode. This is why calcium is the anode in the cell mentioned in the question. Calcium ion has a reduction potential of -2.87 V while sodium ion has a reduction potential of -2.71 V, hence the answer.

How are carbon-based molecules suited for sustaining life?
IrinaVladis [17]

\huge\fcolorbox{red}{pink}{Answer ♥}

Life on Earth is based on carbon, likely because each carbon atom can form bonds with up to four other atoms simultaneously. This quality makes carbon well-suited to form the long chains of molecules that serve as the basis for life as we know it, such as proteins and DNA.

The fluorocarbon compound c2cl3f3 has a normal boiling point of 47.6°c. the specific heats of c2cl3f3(l) and c2cl3f3(g) are 0.91
myrzilka [38]
<span>To raise the liquid temperature to the point of boiling take 1231.776 joules of energy. To convert to a gas takes 5320.645 joules. To raise to 108 degrees Celsius takes 1456.848 joules. Total amount of energy needed (as heat) equals 8009.269 joules or 8.009 kj.</span>

Calculate the pOH of an aqueous solution of .0.073 M LiOH
Novosadov [1.4K]

Considering the definition of pOH and strong base, the pOH of the aqueous solution is 1.14

The pOH (or potential OH) is a measure of the basicity or alkalinity of a solution and indicates the concentration of ion hydroxide (OH-).

pOH is expressed as the logarithm of the concentration of OH⁻ ions, with the sign changed:

pOH= - log [OH⁻]

On the other hand, a strong base is that base that in an aqueous solution completely dissociates between the cation and OH-.

LiOH is a strong base, so the concentration of the hydroxide will be equal to the concentration of OH-. This is:

[LiOH]= [OH-]= 0.073 M

Replacing in the definition of pOH:

pOH= -log (0.073 M)

<u><em>pOH= 1.14 </em></u>

In summary, the pOH of the aqueous solution is 1.14

A student writes the following explanation of how one type of compound is formed. these compounds are made by the repeated joini
tatyana61 [14]

In the given question according to the information the process of polymerization is an addition polymerization.

<h3>What is polymerization?</h3>

Polymerization is a process in which addition of many small molecules takes place for the formation of a large three dimensional substance known as polymer.

In the polymerization of polyethene the small repeating molecule is ethene and in this process product formed due to the addition process to the double bond of the ethene.

  • In condensation polymerisation removal of water molecule or any other molecule takes place.
  • In dehydrogenation polymerisation removal of hydrogen molecule takes place.
  • In dehydrohalogenation polymerisation removal of hydrogen halide molecule takes place.

Hence given process is an addition polymerisation.
