A solution in which the hydroxide ion concentration is 1 x10^-2 is

Basic

A basic solution is a solution which has more hydroxide ion than the hydrogen ion. In other word the solution has a Ph greater than 7 in a Ph scale.

An electrochemical cell has the following standard cell notation: Al(s) | Al3+(aq) || Mg2+(aq) | Mg(s)

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

a. Al(s) ⇄ Al⁺³(aq) + 3e⁻ (oxidation)

Mg²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⇄ Mg(s) (reduction)

b. ΔE° = + 0.715 V

c. It's an electrolytic cell, because it's a nonspontaneous reaction.

d. 2Al(s) + 3Mg²⁺(aq) ⇄ 2Al⁺³(aq) + 3Mg(s)

Explanation:

a. By the notation given, first is represented the oxidation reaction and then the reduction reaction, so they are:

Al(s) ⇄ Al⁺³(aq) + 3e⁻ (oxidation)

Mg²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⇄ Mg(s) (reduction)

b. The standard potential of the cell (ΔE°) is the reduction potential of the oxidation less the reduction potential of the reduction. The reduction potentials are:

Al(s) = -1.66 V

Mg(s) = -2.375 V

ΔE° = -1.66 - (-2.375)

ΔE° = + 0.715 V

c. It's an electrolytic cell.

A galvanic cell is spontaneous, so the cathode (reduction) has a higher E° than the cathode (oxidation). In this case, the oxidation reaction has a higher E°, so the reaction is nonspontaneous and it's necessary an external force to it happen, so it's an electrolytic cell.

d. 2Al(s) + 3Mg²⁺(aq) ⇄ 2Al⁺³(aq) + 3Mg(s)

The number of electrons must be the same, so the oxidation reaction is multiplied by 2, and the reduction reaction by 3.

Who is considered the founder of the periodic table of the elements?

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Dmitry Mendeleev

Explanation:

Around 1869 a Russian scientist, Dmitry Mendeleev formed what is now known as the periodic table or chart. The Mendeleevian periodic table was based on the atomic weights of elements using the periodic law. The periodic law states that "chemical properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic weights".

The modern periodic table was re-stated by Henry Moseley in the 1900s. He changed the basis of the periodic law to atomic masses.

Typical "hard" water contains about 2.0 x 10–3 mol of Ca2+ per liter. Calculate the maximum concentration of fluoride ion that c

malfutka [58]

Answer:

$[F^-]_{max}=4x10{-3}\frac{molF^-}{L}$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the described situation, we infer that calcium reacts with fluoride ions to yield insoluble calcium fluoride as shown below:

$Ca^{+2}(aq)+2F^-(aq)\rightleftharpoons CaF_2(s)$

Which is typically an equilibrium reaction, since calcium fluoride is able to come back to the ions. In such a way, since the maximum amount is computed via stoichiometry, we can see a 1:2 mole ratio between the ions, therefore, the required maximum amount of fluoride ions in the "hard" water (assuming no other ions) turns out:

$[F^-]_{max}=2.0x10^{-3}\frac{molCa^{2+}}{L}*\frac{2molF^-}{1molCa^{2+}} \\$

$[F^-]_{max}=4x10{-3}\frac{molF^-}{L}$

Best regards.

Consider a reaction that has a positive ΔH and a positive ΔS. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A) This reaction will be

Alja [10]

Answer: A) This reaction will be spontaneous only at high temperatures

Explanation:

$\Delta G$ = +ve, reaction is non spontaneous

$\Delta G$ = -ve, reaction is spontaneous

$\Delta G$ = 0, reaction is in equilibrium

Using Gibbs Helmholtz equation:

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

Given : $\Delta H=+ve$

$\Delta S=+ve$

$\Delta G=(+ve)-T(+ve)$

$\Delta G=(+ve)(-ve)$

Thus the value of $\Delta G$ is negative and spontaneous when temperature is high.

maw [93]

The correct response I believe is A. Isomer. If a carbon molecule possess more than one arrangement of how its atoms can be arranged, those other arrangements are known as isomers.
