Ice cream melting is a physical and reversible change because it is a solid and the sun's heat is making it melt into a liquid. It is reversible because it is able to change back its state into a solid with the heat taken away. Reversible changes is a change in a substance that can be reversed.


Frozen yogurt dissolving is a physical and reversible change since it is a strong and the sun's warmth is making it soften into a fluid. It is reversible since it can change back its state into a strong with the warmth removed. Reversible changes is an adjustment in a substance that can be switched.

Melting ice cream is a physical change because it is a phase change, the water in the ice cream gains thermal energy and the inter-molecular forces are overcome and the molecules move further apart forming a liquid. It is not a chemical change because no chemical reactions occurred.

A zinc rod is placed in 0.1 MZnSO4 solution at 298 K. Write the electrode reaction and calculate the potential of the electrode.
yanalaym [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The potential of electrode is -0.79 V

<u>Explanation:</u>

When zinc is dipped in zinc sulfate solution, the electrode formed is Zn^{2+}(aq.)/Zn(s)

Reduction reaction follows:  Zn^{2+}(0.1M)+2e^-\rightarrow Zn(s);(E^o_{Zn^{2+}/Zn}=-0.76V)

To calculate the potential of electrode, we use the equation given by Nernst equation:

E_{(Zn^{2+}/Zn)}=E^o_{(Zn^{2+}/Zn)}-\frac{0.059}{n}\log \frac{[Zn]}{[Zn^{2+}]}

where,

E_{cell} = electrode potential of the cell = ?V

E^o_{cell} = standard electrode potential of the cell = -0.76 V

n = number of electrons exchanged = 2

[Zn]=1M    (concentration of pure solids are taken as 1)

[Zn^{2+}]=0.1M

Putting values in above equation, we get:

E_{cell}=-0.76-\frac{0.059}{2}\times \log(\frac{1}{0.1})\\\\E_{cell}=-0.79V

Hence, the potential of electrode is -0.79 V

Mice21 [21]

Ecologists use food web diagrams as tools in their studies of different populations of organisms within an ecosystem because it shows the feeding relationship between organisms in the ecosystem.

<h3>What is a Food web?</h3>

This is defined as the graphical representation of the feeding relationship which occurs between organisms in the ecosystem and helps to predict the outcome in the addition or removal of a species.

The food web also helps to determine the various ways in which energy flows and it usually starts from the producers which are the plants as a result of their photosynthetic ability which involves the conversion of solar energy to chemical energy.

There are various organisms in the ecosystem and the food web helps to provide a better understanding of their feeding habits and impact various factors will result in.
