Natural selection is what nature it self makes to enhance or mutate the species for survival of the finest but selective breeding is where humans mutate animals or plants to make them better, whether of use or taste, for our use.

What is the scale factor?

professor190 [17]

Answer:

Scale Factor: 1 : 2

X = 11

Explanation:

3 / 3 = 1

6 / 3 = 2

The scale factor should be 1:2

So 'X' should be 11 since 5.5 * 2 = 11

The standard reduction potentials of the following half-reactions are given in Appendix E in the textbook:

german

Answer:

For 1: The largest positive cell potential is of cell having 1st and 4th half reactions.

For 2: The standard electrode potential of the cell is 1.539 V

For 3: The smallest positive cell potential is of cell having 3rd and 4th half reactions. The standard electrode potential of the cell is 0.46 V

Explanation:

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

We are given:

$Ag^++(aq.)+e^-\rightarrow Ag(s);E^o_{Ag^+/Ag}=0.799V\\\\Cu^{2+}+(aq.)+2e^-\rightarrow Cu(s);E^o_{Cu^{2+}/Cu}=0.337V\\\\Ni^{2+}(aq.)+2e^-\rightarrow Ni(s);E^o_{Ni^{2+}/Ni}=-0.28V\\\\Cr^{3+}(aq.)+3e^-\rightarrow Cr(s);E^o_{Cr^{3+}/Cr}=-0.74V$

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

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

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

Cell having 1st and 2nd half reactions:

Silver has higher electrode potential. So, this will undergo reduction reaction and act as anode. Copper will undergo oxidation reaction and act as cathode.

$E^o_{cell}=0.799-0.337=0.462V$

Cell having 1st and 3rd half reactions:

Silver has higher electrode potential. So, this will undergo reduction reaction and act as anode. Nickel will undergo oxidation reaction and act as cathode.

$E^o_{cell}=0.799-(-0.28)=1.079V$

Cell having 1st and 4th half reactions:

Silver has higher electrode potential. So, this will undergo reduction reaction and act as anode. Chromium will undergo oxidation reaction and act as cathode.

$E^o_{cell}=0.799-(-0.74)=1.539V$

Cell having 2nd and 3rd half reactions:

Copper has higher electrode potential. So, this will undergo reduction reaction and act as anode. Nickel will undergo oxidation reaction and act as cathode.

$E^o_{cell}=0.337-(-0.28)=0.617V$

Cell having 3rd and 4th half reactions:

Nickel has higher electrode potential. So, this will undergo reduction reaction and act as anode. Chromium will undergo oxidation reaction and act as cathode.

$E^o_{cell}=-0.28-(-0.74)=0.46V$

Hence,

For 1: The largest positive cell potential is of cell having 1st and 4th half reactions.

For 2: The standard electrode potential of the cell is 1.539 V

For 3: The smallest positive cell potential is of cell having 3rd and 4th half reactions. The standard electrode potential of the cell is 0.46 V
