Answer:

Percent error = 2.8

Explanation:

Given data;

Actual value = 17.9 cm

Measured value = 17.4 cm

Percent error = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Percent error = [actual value - measured value / actual value] × 100

Now we will put the values in formula:

Percent error = [17.9 cm - 17.4 cm / 17.9 cm] × 100

Percent error = [0.5 cm /17.9 cm] × 100

Percent error = 0.028  × 100

Percent error = 2.8

Ecell = E°cell - RT/vF * lnQ

R is the gas constant: 8.3145 J/Kmol
T is the temperature in kelvin: 273.15K = 0°C, 25°C = 298.15K
v is the amount of electrons, which in your example seems to be six (I'm not totally sure)
F is the Faradays constant: 96485 J/Vmol (not sure about the mol)
Q is the concentration of products divided by the concentration of reactants, in which we ignore pure solids and liquids: [Mg2+]³ / [Fe3+]²

Standard conditions is 1 mol, at 298.15K and 1 atm

To find E°cell, you have to look up the reduction potensials of Fe3+ and Mg2+, and solve like this:

E°cell = cathode - anode

Cathode is where the reduction happens, so that would be the element that recieves electrons. Anode is where the oxidation happens, so that would be the element that donates electrons. In your example Fe3+ recieves electrons, and should be considered as cathode in the equation above. 

When you have found E°cell, you can just solve with the numbers I gave you.

3) The spectrum of the unknown mixture is a mixture of two substances among the five. What are these two substances
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

a. H + d. Na

Explanation:

This is Mixture of H and Na. Because of H and in the emission and Absorption spectrum of H Total 5 lines [Red, Green, Blue and Purple (2)) are present and in the spectrum of Na Two yellow lines are present. In the mixture all this lines are are also 5 + Present. Total lines are 5+2= 7 (H+ Na)

Therefore, the answer is a. H + d. Na
