Hey there!

2KI → 2_ + 2_

In a decomposition reaction, one reactant yields two or more products.

Potassium iodide will decompose into potassium and iodine.

2KI → 2K + 2I

This equation is balanced, 2 K on each side and 2 I on each side.

Hope this helps!

An electrochemical cell is composed of pure nickel and pure iron electrodes immersed in solutions of their divalent ions at room
Andrej [43]

Answer:

0.758 V.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, case when we include the effect of concentration on an electrochemical cell, we need to consider the Nerst equation at 25 °C:

E=E\°-\frac{0.0591}{n} log(Q)

Whereas n stands for the number of moles of transferred electrons and Q the reaction quotient relating the concentration of the oxidized species over the concentration of the reduced species. In such a way, we can write the undergoing half-reactions in the cell, considering the iron's one is reversed because it has the most positive standard potential so it tends to reduction:

Fe^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Fe^0\ \ \ E\°=0.440V\\\\Ni^0\rightarrow Ni^{2+}+2e^-\ \ \ E\°=-0.250V

It means that the concentration of the oxidized species is 0.002 M (that of nickel), that of the reduced species is 0.40 M and there are two moles of transferred electrons; therefore, the generated potential turns out:

E=(0.440V+0.250V)-\frac{0.0591}{2} log(\frac{0.002M}{0.40M} )\\\\E=0.758V

Beat regards!

Distinguish between atom molecules, and ions
NNADVOKAT [17]

Explanation:

Atoms are the smallest unit of matter that can't be broken down chemically. Molecules are groups of two or more atoms that are chemically bonded. Ions are atoms or molecules that have gained or lost one or more of their valence electrons and therefore have a net positive or negative charge.
