A certain metal M forms a soluble sulfate salt M2SO4. Suppose the left half cell of a galvanic cell apparatus is filled with a 5

0.0mM solution of M2SO4 and the right half cell with a 5.00M solution of the same substance. Electrodes made of M are dipped into both solutions and a voltmeter is connected between them. The temperature of the apparatus is held constant at 20.0°C.
Which electrode will be positive?

Left

Right

Answer:

Right

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The soluble sulfate formed by the metal, M = M₂SO₄

In the galvanic cell formed by the metal M, we have;

The concentration of M₂SO₄ in the left half cell = 50.0 mM = 0.05 M

The concentration of M₂SO₄ in the right half cell = 5.00 M

In the galvanic cell, the metal 'M' will be dissolved into the solution with lower concentration as M²⁺ which is the left half cell, making the cell negative and the solution more concentrated

In the right half cell, the metal 'M²⁺' in the solution will be plated unto the electrode making the solution less concentrated and the electrode in the right half cell will be the positive electrode

Therefore;

The electrode which will be positive is the electrode in the right half cell.

A chemist measures the energy change ?H during the following reaction: 2HgO (s) ?2Hg (l) +O2 (g) =?H182.kJ Use the information t
Leni [432]

Answer:

The reaction is endothermic.

Yes, absorbed

3.06x10¹kJ are absorbed

Explanation:

In the reaction:

2HgO(s) → 2Hg(l) + O₂(g) ΔH = 182kJ

As ΔH >0,

<em>The reaction is endothermic</em>

<em />

As the reaction is endothermic, when the reaction occurs,

<em>the heat is absorbed.</em>

<em></em>

Now, based on the equation, when 2 moles of HgO (Molar mass: 216.59g/mol), 182kJ are absorbed.

72.8g are:

72.8g * (1mol / 216.59g) = 0.3361 moles HgO.

that absorb:

0.3361 moles HgO * (182kJ / 2 moles) =

<h3>3.06x10¹kJ are absorbed</h3>
