A voltaic cell spontaneously converts chemical energy to electrical energy. The correct option among all the options given in the question is option "2".
Actually voltaic cell is an electrochemical cell that
converts the chemical contained within it by the process of chemical reaction
to produce electrical energy. The voltaic cell contains an anode and a cathode.
Anode is an electrode where the oxidation occurs and cathode is the electrode
where reduction occurs. The oxidation and the reduction part occurs in two
separate parts of the cell known as half-cell.
Water is polar meaning that it has prominent areas of negative and positive charge. Among water molecules there is a weak force called hydrogen bonding which causes the molecules to "stick" to one another. This sticking to itself is called cohesion, and it causes water to ball up into droplets. This same force also causes water to stick to other kinds of molecules. This is called adhesion, and it is what causes water to ride up on the side of a water container slightly.
Answer:
Explanation:
1. the 1/2 reaction that occurs at the cathode
3Cl2(g) +6e^- -------------> 6Cl^- (aq)
2 the 1/2 reaction that occurs at the anode
2MnO2(s) + 8OH^-(aq) ----------> 2MnO4^- (aq) + 4H2O(l) +6e^-
2MnO2(s) + 8OH^-(aq) ----------> 2MnO4^- (aq) + 4H2O(l) +6e^-
E0 = -0.59v
3Cl2(g) +6e^- -------------> 6Cl^- (aq)
E0 = 1.39v
3Cl2 (g) + 2MnO2 (s) + 8OH^(−) (aq)---------> 6Cl^(−) (aq) + 2MnO4^(−) (aq) + 4H2O (l)
E0cell = 0.80v
The balanced chemical reaction would be as follows:
2H2O2 = 2H2O + O2
We are given the amount of the peroxide that decomposes. Using this as the starting point for the calculations, we can determine the amount of O2 produced. We do as follows:
14.3 mol H2O2 ( 1 mol O2 / 2 mol H2O2 ) = 7.15 mol O2 produced
