The half-cell is a chamber in the voltaic cell where one half-cell is the site of the oxidation reaction and the other half-cell

is the site of the reduction reaction. type the half-cell reaction that takes place at the anode for the iron-silver voltaic cell. indicate the physical states of atoms and ions using the abbreviation (s), (l), or (g) for solid, liquid, or gas, respectively. use (aq) for an aqueous solution. do not include phases for electrons. express your answer as a chemical equation.

Answer:

\boxed{\rm \text{Fe(s) $\rightleftharpoons$ Fe$^{2+}$(aq) + 2e$^{-}$}}

Explanation:

The half-cell reduction potentials are

Ag⁺(aq) +   e⁻ ⇌ Ag(s)     E° =  0.7996 V

Fe²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⇌ Fe(s)     E° = -0.447    V

To create a spontaneous voltaic cell, we reverse the half-reaction with the more negative half-cell potential.

The anode is the electrode at which oxidation occurs.

The equation for the oxidation half-reaction is

\boxed{\rm \textbf{Fe(s) $\rightleftharpoons$ Fe$^{2+}$(aq) + 2e$^{-}$}}

Energy in Devices. An engineer needs to design a device that transforms light energy into sound energy. Describe a design for a
N76 [4]

Answer:

built a special cavity where the electromagnetic quantum states resonate with the natural vibrations of the atoms. In doing so, one cancouple a photon-based oscillator to a mechanical oscillator, controlling the mechanical quantum states with visible light. The result is a prototype of a quantum transducer, a device that converts light energy into mechanical energy (sound energy)

Explanation:

Sound energy is created by vibrating particles of medium that propagates as a wave. So in order to convert light (electromagnetic wave) to sound wave it has to be converted into electric or magnetic signals. Then these signals can be converted into sound waves.

However, if you consider the particle nature of light. It contains momentum and after collision sets the other particles into oscillatory motion but the wavelength of these vibrations is too high to be considered as sound waves.

Which element below is the most reactive? Hydrogen chlorine neon oxygen
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Chlorine

Explanation:

Chlorine has an atomic number of 17 and a configuration of 2, 8, 7. In the outermost shell, it has 7 seven electrons which means that it needs just one more electron to attain an octet configuration in that shell. Therefore it's can react quickly with any nearby nucleophile.

Convert 0.95 kilograms into centigrams. (1 g = 100 cg; 1 kg = 1000 g)
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

95,000 centigrams

Explanation:

There is 1000 CG in 0.01 kilograms

so you do 1000*95 which equals 95,000 centigrams.

Arrange the liquids pentane (CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3), pentanol (CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2OH), and pentanal (CH3CH2CH2CH2CHO) in order of decreasi
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

These properties are governed by intermolecular forces. The most important part here is the oxygen interaction with the surroundings. For temperature the decreasing order is pentanol, pentanal and pentane. For viscocity: pentanol, pentanal and pentane. For surface tension: pentanol, pentanal and pentane.

This order, as said before, is due to the interaction of oxygen with the surroundings, within the intermolecular forces we can find van der waals forces and hydrogen bonds, it is also know that H-bonds are stronger than van der waals forces so then that is why we have this type of interactions.
