Both diamond and graphite are allotropes of carbon. Diamond has a high tensile strength but graphite does not.
<h3>What is a molecular model?</h3>
A molecular model is used to describe the actual behavior of a chemical compound based on the kind of bonds that exists in the molecule. Now we are talking about diamond and graphite.
Graphite is composed of hexagonal rings of carbon atoms that form layers that are held together by weak Van Der Walls forces hence they can slide over each other. This is the reason why graphite does not have a high tensile strength.
On the other hand, diamond is made up of octagonal rings of carbon atoms which are rigid and form a strong covalent network solid that explains why graphite has a high tensile strength.

Glycerol attractive forces are great than water. The harder to break, the more energy is needed.
Hello, Ginamuhs2!
The oxidizing agent in 2H2S + 3O2 → 2SO2 + 2H2O is the oxygen.
I hope this helps;)
Answer:
a. -0.63 V
b. No
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
- Standard reduction potential of the anode (E°red): -1.33 V
- Minimum standard cell potential (E°cell): 0.70 V
Step 2: Calculate the required standard reduction potential of the cathode
The galvanic cell must provide at least 0.70V of electrical power, that is:
E°cell > 0.70 V [1]
We can calculate the standard reduction potential of the cathode (E°cat) using the following expression.
E°cell = E°cat - E°an [2]
If we combine [1] and [2], we get,
E°cat - E°an > 0.70 V
E°cat > 0.70 V + E°an
E°cat > 0.70 V + (-1.33 V)
E°cat > -0.63 V
The minimum E°cat is -0.63 V and there is no maximum E°cat.
