Why does increasing the temperature make a solid dissolve faster?

Deffense [45]

Answer:

The chemical bonds of the solid are broken faster.

Explanation:

As the temperature of a solution is increased, the average kinetic energy of the molecules that make up the solution also increases. The increased vibration (kinetic energy) of the solute molecules causes them to be less able to hold together, and thus they dissolve more readily.

Given the E0 values of the following two half-reactions: Zn  Zn2+ + 2e- E0 = 0.763 volt Fe  Fe2+ + 2e- E0 = 0.441 volt a) Writ

34kurt

Answer:

For a: The balanced chemical equation is written below.

For b: The corrosion of iron pipe will take place in the presence of zinc.

For c: Zinc will not protect iron pipe from corrosion.

Explanation:

For a:

The given half reaction follows:

The substance having highest positive $E^o$ potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction. Here, zinc will undergo reduction reaction will get reduced.

Oxidation half reaction: $Zn\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+2e^-;E^o_{Zn^{2+}/Zn}=-0.763V$

Reduction half reaction: $Fe+2e^-\rightarrow Fe;E^o_{Fe^{2+}/Fe}=-0.441V$

The balanced chemical equation follows:

$Fe+Zn^{2+}\rightarrow Fe^{2+}+Zn$

For b:

For a reaction to be spontaneous (thermodynamically feasible) , the standard electrode potential must be positive.

To calculate the $E^o_{cell}$ of the reaction, we use the equation:

$E^o_{cell}=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}$

Substance getting oxidized always act as anode and the one getting reduced always act as cathode.

Calculating the $E^o_{cell}$ using above equation, we get:

$E^o_{cell}=-0.441-(-0.763)=0.322V$

As, the EMF is coming out to be positive, the reaction will be thermodynamically feasible and corrosion of iron pipe will take place in the presence of zinc.

For c:

As, the EMF of the cell is positive, the zinc will not protect the iron pipe from corrosion and the reaction will take place.

How many atoms are in 5.00g of carbon

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

2.51 x 1023 atoms C

Explanation:

MW C = 12.011

5g x (1mol/12.011g) =0.416 mol

0.416 mol x (6.022x10^23) = 2.51 x 1023 atoms C

3 reasons why aluminium is used in making of cooking vessels

Annette [7]

Answer is : It is a good thermal and electrical conductor. -The main point to be noted is that aluminium is a highly reactive element and still it is used for making cooking utensils. The reason is that aluminium has a very high affinity for oxygen. So, it reacts with oxygen and forms a layer of aluminium oxide on its surface.
