Answer:

During the initial cell operation, each reaction is thermodynamically favorable, but the larger operating potential of the lithium-iodine cell indicates that its cell reaction is more thermodynamically favorable.  ( B )

During the initial cell operation, the oxidation of iodine is  thermodynamically favorable but the oxidation of mercury is not. ( C )

Explanation:

<u>The major Differences between The Zinc mercury cell and Lithium-iodine cell are :</u>

During the initial cell operation, each reaction is thermodynamically favorable, but the larger operating potential of the lithium-iodine cell indicates that its cell reaction is more thermodynamically favorable.   and

During the initial cell operation, the oxidation of iodine is thermodynamically favorable but the oxidation of mercury is not.

Given the relationship below,

Δ G = -nFE

E = emf of cell ,  G = free energy.

This relationship shows that if E is positive the reaction will be thermodynamically favorable also if E is large it will increase the negativity of free energy  also From the question we can see that with the reduction of mercury the value of E is more positive and this shows that Mercury is thermodynamically unfavorable

Compounds X and Y both have the formula C7H14. Both X and Y react with one molar equivalent of hydrogen in the presence of a pal
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

Alkenes undergo hydrogenation to give the corresponding alkanes. Where the structure of the original alkene is unknown, we can deduce the structure of the alkene from the structure of the products obtained when it undergoes various chemical reactions.

Now, the fact that we obtained 2-methylhexane upon hydrogenation and the two compounds had different heats of hydrogenation means that the two compounds were geometric isomers. The original compounds must have been cis-2-methyl-3-hexene and trans-2-methyl-3-hexene.

When reacted with HCl, the same compound C7H15Cl is formed because the stereo chemistry is removed.

However, we know that the trans isomer is more stable than the cis isomer hence the cis isomer always has a higher heat of hydrogenation than the trans isomer. Thus X is cis-2-methyl-3-hexene.

A brick has a mass of 4.0 kg and the Earth has a mass of 6.0 × 1027 g. Use this information to answer the questions below. Be su
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

a) 2.4\times 10^{24} kg is the mass of 1 mole of bricks.

b) 2.5\times 10^3 moles of bricks have a mass equal to the mass of the Earth.

Explanation:

a) Mass of brick = 4.0 kg

1 mole = N_A=6.022\times 10^{23} particles/ atoms/molecules

Mass of N_A bricks :

=6.022\times 10^{23}\times 4.0 kg=2.4088\times 10^{24} kg\approx 2.4\times 10^{24} kg

2.4\times 10^{24} kg is the mass of 1 mole of bricks.

b)

Mass of the Earth = M = 6.0\times 10^{27} kg

Mass of 1 mole of brick = m=2.4\times 10^{24} kg

Let the moles of brick with equal mass of the Earth be x.

m\times x=M

x=\frac{M}{m}=\frac{6.0\times 10^{27}kg}{2.4\times 10^{24} kg}=2.5\times 10^3

2.5\times 10^3 moles of bricks have a mass equal to the mass of the Earth.
