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.

Softa [21]

Answer:inform the lab instructor and get instructions

Explanation:

If you come across a chemical in the laboratory which has been wrongly labelled, do not be quick to dilute it or take any further action. The laboratory instructor who may have prepared the reagent himself or has better knowledge about the reagent should be contacted immediately so that he/she can give you instructions about what to do with the wrongly labelled reagent.
