Answer:

Reaction A and B are unfavorable.

Explanation:

Gibbs free energy is an energy which that can be use to convert into useful work.

ΔG°=ΔH°-TΔS°

ΔG°= Gibbs free energy

ΔH° =  enthalpy of reaction

T = temperature of eh reaction

ΔS° = Entropy change

  • If the Gibbs  free energy of the reaction is positive than the reaction will be non spontaneous and the chemical reaction will be not feasible.
  • If the Gibbs  free energy of the reaction is negative than the reaction will be spontaneous and the chemical reaction will be feasible .

According to given information in the question:

Reaction A and B are non spontaneous as their Gibbs free energy value is positive.hence both are unfavorable.

In acidic solution, the sulfate ion can be used to react with a number of metal ions. One such reaction is SO42−(aq) Sn2 (aq)→H2
Sav [38]

Answer:

SO₄²⁻(aq) +Sn²⁺(aq) +4H⁺ → H₂SO₃(aq) + Sn⁴⁺(aq) + H₂O

Explanation:

At first calculate the oxidation state of that element which undergoes oxidation as well as reduction.

for SO₄²⁻ the oxidation state of sulphur is +6 and H₂SO₃ the oxidation state of sulphur is +4

So balance equation is

(Reduction)      SO₄²⁻ + 4H⁺+ 2e⁻ → H₂SO₃ + H₂O.........................................(1)

(oxidation)        Sn²⁺ → Sn⁴⁺ + 2e⁻ .............................................................(2)

Adding equation 1 & 2

we get

SO₄²⁻(aq) +Sn²⁺(aq) +4H⁺ → H₂SO₃(aq) + Sn⁴⁺(aq) + H₂O

Free-energy change, ΔG∘, is related to cell potential, E∘, by the equationΔG∘=−nFE∘where n is the number of moles of electrons t
mart [117]

Answer:

a)\Delta G=372490 J

b)\Delta G=-568614 J

Explanation:

a) The reaction:

Mg(s) +Fe^{2+}(aq) \longrightarrow Mg^{2+}(aq) + Fe(s)

The free-energy expression:

\Delta G=-n*F*E

E=E_{red}-E_{ox]

The element wich is reduced is the Fe and the one that oxidates is the Mg:

-0.44V=E_{red}-(-2.37V)=1.93V

The electrons transfered (n) in this reaction are 2, so:

\Delta G=-2mol*96500 C/mol * 1.93 V

\Delta G=-372490 J

b) If you have values of enthalpy and enthropy you can calculate the free-energy by:

\Delta G=\Delta H - T* \Delta S

with T in Kelvin

\Delta G=-675 kJ*\frac{1000J}{kJ} - 298K*-357 J/K

\Delta G=-568614 J

An atom has 2 protons in its nucleus . Which of the following must be true for this atom to have no net electrical charge
ehidna [41]
If an atom has 2 protons, then it must also have 2 electrons for there to be no charge. An extra electron will cause for you to have a negative charge, and if you have more protons than electrons, then you will have a positive charge. :)
