A serial dilution is the stepwise dilution of a substance in solution. Usually the dilution factor at each step is constant, resulting in a geometric progression of the concentration in a logarithmic fashion.

Calculate E ° for the half‑reaction, AgCl ( s ) + e − − ⇀ ↽ − Ag ( s ) + Cl − ( aq ) given that the solubility product constant

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: The value of $E^{o}$ for the half-cell reaction is 0.222 V.

Explanation:

Equation for solubility equilibrium is as follows.

$AgCl(s) \rightleftharpoons Ag^{+}(aq) + Cl^{-}(aq)$

Its solubility product will be as follows.

$K_{sp} = [Ag^{+}][Cl^{-}]$

Cell reaction for this equation is as follows.

$Ag(s)| AgCl(s)|Cl^{-}(0.1 M)|| Ag^{+}(1.0 M)| Ag(s)$

Reduction half-reaction: $Ag^{+} + 1e^{-} \rightarrow Ag(s)$ , $E^{o}_{Ag^{+}/Ag} = 0.799 V$

Oxidation half-reaction: $Ag(s) + Cl^{-}(aq) \rightarrow AgCl(s) + 1e^{-}$ , $E^{o}_{AgCl/Ag}$ = ?

Cell reaction: $Ag^{+}(aq) + Cl^{-}(aq) \rightarrow AgCl(s)$

So, for this cell reaction the number of moles of electrons transferred are n = 1.

Solubility product, $K_{sp} = [Ag^{+}][Cl^{-}]$

= $1.77 \times 10^{-10}$

Therefore, according to the Nernst equation

$E_{cell} = E^{o}_{cell} - \frac{0.0592 V}{n} log \frac{[AgCl]}{[Ag^{+}][Cl^{-}]}$

At equilibrium, $E_{cell}$ = 0.00 V

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

$E_{cell} = E^{o}_{cell} - \frac{0.0592 V}{n} log \frac{[AgCl]}{[Ag^{+}][Cl^{-}]}$

$0.00 = E^{o}_{cell} - \frac{0.0592 V}{1} log \frac{1}{[Ag^{+}][Cl^{-}]}$

$E^{o}_{cell} = \frac{0.0592}{1} log \frac{1}{K_{sp}}$

= $0.0591 V \times log \frac{1}{1.77 \times 10^{-10}}$

= 0.577 V

Hence, we will calculate the standard cell potential as follows.

$E^{o}_{cell} = E^{o}_{cathode} - E^{o}_{anode}$

$0.577 V = E^{o}_{Ag^{+}/Ag} - E^{o}_{AgCl/Ag}$

$0.577 V = 0.799 V - E^{o}_{AgCl/Ag}$

$E^{o}_{AgCl/Ag}$ = 0.222 V

Thus, we can conclude that value of $E^{o}$ for the half-cell reaction is 0.222 V.

Why would an electrician use parallel circuits to wire the lights in each room of a house instead of using a series circuit?

aivan3 [116]

B.
When electricians get their license, they are only licensed to install parallel circuits. Most electricians aren't certified to install series circuits.
