4 0

Explanation:

The given cell reaction is as follows.

       In(s)| In^{3+}(aq) || Cd^{2+}(aq) | Cd(s)

Hence, reactions taking place at the cathode and anode are as follows.

At anode ; Oxidation-half reaction : In(s) \rightarrow In^{3+}(aq) + 3e^{-} ...... (1)

At cathode; Reduction-half reaction : Cd^{2+}(aq) + 2e^{-} \rightarrow Cd(s) ....... (2)

Hence, balance the half reactions by multiplying equation (1) by 2 and equation (2) by 3.

Therefore, net cell reaction is as follows.

      2In(s) \rightarrow 2In^{3+}(aq) + 6e^{-}

      3Cd^{2+}(aq) + 6e^{-} \rightarrow 3Cd(s)

Net reaction: 2In(s) + 3Cd^{2+}(aq) \rightarrow 2In^{3+}(aq) + 3Cd(s)

Thus, we can conclude that the overall cell reaction is as follows.

        2In(s) + 3Cd^{2+}(aq) \rightarrow 2In^{3+}(aq) + 3Cd(s)

Determine the specific heat ofmaterial if a 12g sample absorbed 48j as it was heated from 20-40
devlian [24]

Answer:

c =0.2 J/g.°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Specific heat of material = ?

Mass of sample = 12 g

Heat absorbed = 48 J

Initial temperature = 20°C

Final temperature = 40°C

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT =  40°C -20°C

ΔT =  20°C

48 J = 12 g×c×20°C

48 J =240 g.°C×c

c = 48 J/240 g.°C

c =0.2 J/g.°C

What is the formula to use for this question, "how far does light travel in 2.5s"?
Nutka1998 [239]
The definition of the speed of light is exactly 299,792,458 meters per second, so to find how far it travels in a time period, multiply the speed of light times the time. Aka c=299,792,458m/s where c is speed of light, m is meters, and s is seconds. So for example to find how far light travels in 5 seconds, multiply by 5.
