You can Maybe do a volcano?
Arenal Volcano: Plate Tectonic Setting. The volcanic arc of Costa Rica, where Arenal is located, is a chain of mountains resulting from the subduction of the Cocos tectonic plate under the Caribbean Plate. Costa Rica is part of the Central American isthmus, which connects the North and South American continents.
Answer:
Explanation:
To calculate the cell potential we use the relation:
Eº cell = Eº oxidation + Eº reduction
Now in order to determine which of the species is going to be oxidized, we have to remember that the more the value of the reduction potential is negative, the greater its tendency to be oxidized is. In electrochemistry we use the values of the reductions potential in the tables for simplicity because the only thing we need to do is change the sign of the reduction potential for the oxized species .
So the species that is going to be oxidized is the Aluminium, and therefore:
Eº cell = -( -1.66 V ) + 0.340 V = 5.06 V
Equally valid is to write the equation as:
Eº cell = Eº reduction for the reduced species - Eº reduction for the oxidized species
These two expressions are equivalent, choose the one you fell more comfortable but be careful with the signs.
Answer: when reactants and products are gases at STP.
Justification:
1) STP stands for standard temperature (0°) and pressure (1 atm).
2) According to the kinetic molecular theory of the gases, and as per Avogadro's principle, equal volumes of gases, at the same temperature and pressure, have the same number of molecules.
3) Since the coefficients in a balanced chemical equation represent number of moles, when reactants and products are gases at the same temperature and pressure, the mole ratios are the same that the volume ratios, and then the coefficients of the chemical equation represent the volume ratios.
