Answer:

Electrons will flow from left to right through the wire.

Pb^2+ ions will be reduccd to Pb metal.

The concentration of Sn2+ ions in the left compartment will increase.

Explanation:

Looking at the relative electrode potentials of the two metals

Sn= -0.14

Pb=-0.13

Tin is expected to function as the anode (left hand half cell) and lead as the anode (right hand half cell) tin oxidizes to sn^2+ hence its concentration increases on the left compartment while lead is reduced to ordinary lead metal on the right hand half cell . since oxidation occurs on the left hand side, electrons flow from left to right.

Drug testing if a person do not use drugs how cam he test positive on hair drug test
Hitman42 [59]

For example, certain medications may influence the results of the test.

Drug test can show the presence of illicit or prescription drugs on hair samples, although the person has not used these drugs.

Some of false positive drug use is because of this medications: antihistamines, decongestants, antibiotics, antidepressants, analgesics and antipsychotics.

Question 2: you have two systems: 1) solid gold and water 2) solid sodium and waterWhich one can spontaneously release energy an
Valentin [98]

Hey there!

Solid Sodium and water will react spontaneously and release energy.  This is based on the reactivity series. Sodium is a highly reactive metal and hence, it is placed at the top of the reactivity series. This is because it loses its outermost electron very readily. When it comes in contact with water, it reacts with it violently to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. This reaction is exothermic and hence, accompanied with a release of energy.  Gold lies at the bottom of the reactivity series as it is very stable and does not give away its outermost electrons easily. Therefore, when it comes in contact with water, there is no reaction and no release of energy.

All p block elements form ions.<br> True or False
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

No this statement is false.

Explanation:

when an atom lose or gain the electron ions are formed. If the atom lose an electron the positive ions are formed called cations while anion is formed by the gaining of electron by an atom The elements having less electrons in valance shell usually lose their electrons while the elements like halogens having 7 valance electrons gain an electron to complete the octet. while p block elements noble gases are inert, their outer most valance shell is complete so they do not form ions.

P block elements are non-metals, metals and metalloids. These are thirty five elements. The P-block elements are present on right side of periodic table. There valance electrons are present in P orbital. The p-block metals are shiny and good conductor of heat and electricity. These metal lose the electron which is accept by non metals and form ionic bond. They have high melting points.

Metalloids includes boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony and tellurium. Metalloids contain both the properties of metals and non metals, Some metalloids are toxic like arsenic.

Most of p-block elements are non metals. They are bad conductor of heat and electricity and have low boiling points. The non metals mostly accept the electron from the metals and usually from ionic bond like in case of chlorine. It form the ionic compound with sodium.

The sodium chloride which is an ionic compound, formed by the complete transfer of electron from sodium to chlorine atom and form ionic bond. In this ionic compound sodium carry positive charge and chlorine carry negative charge there is attraction between these oppositely charged atoms.
