False. elements in the same period have the same number of shells while elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons.
Considering that scientific notation has to move the decimal over so there is only one digit in the Tens place, that is the scientific notation.
M = 2 . 8 . 2
Valence Electron of M = 2
M ==> M⁺² + 2 e⁻
a. M⁺² + OH⁻ ==> M(OH)₂
b. M⁺² + PO₄⁻³ ==> M₃(PO₄)₂
From the reduction standard potentials;
The emf of Zinc = -0.76 V
and the emf of Aluminium = -1.66 V
In a galvanic cell the component with lower standard reduction potential gets oxidized and that it is added to the anode compartment.
Therefore. the voltage of a galvanic cell made with zinc and aluminium will be;
Voltage =Ered- Eoxd
= -0.76 - (-1.66)
= 0.9 V
