Answer:
(1) cathode: Y
(2) anode X
(3) electrons in the wire flow toward: Y
(4) electrons in the wire flow away from: X
(5) anions from the salt bridge flow toward X
(6) cations from the salt bridge flow toward Y
(7) gains mass: Y
(8) looses mass X
Explanation:
The voltaic cell uses two different metal electrodes, each in an electrolyte solution. The anode will undergo oxidation and the cathode will undergo reduction. The metal of the anode will oxidize, going from an oxidation state of 0 (in the solid form) to a positive oxidation state, and it will become an ion. At the cathode, the metal ion in the solution will accept one or more electrons from the cathode, and the ion’s oxidation state will reduce to 0. This forms a solid metal that deposits on the cathode. The two electrodes must be electrically connected to each other, allowing for a flow of electrons that leave the metal of the anode and flow through this connection to the ions at the surface of the cathode. This flow of electrons is an electrical current that can be used to do work, such as turn a motor or power a light.
Answer:
HgSO₄
Explanation:
% => g => moles => ratio => reduce => empirical ratio
%Hg = 67.6% => 67.6g/201g/mol = 0.34mol
%S = 10.8% => 10.8g/32g/mol = 0.34mol
%O = 21.6% => 21.6g/16g/mol = 1.35mol
Hg:S:O => 0.34:0.34:1.35
Reduce to whole number ratio by dividing by the smaller mole value...
Hg:S:O => 0.34/.34:0.34/.34:1.35/.34 => Empirical Ratio = 1:1:4
∴ Empirical Formula is HgSO₄
Answer:
A chemical equation can be described as a symbolic representation of a chemical reaction. It can be written in the form of words or symbols.
The following chemical reaction can be completed as :
Na2SO4·10H2O + 2C = Na2S + 10H2O + 2CO2
Sodium Sulfate Decahydrate + Diamond = Sodium Sulfide + Water + Carbon Dioxide
The products of the reaction are:
- Sodium Sulfide (Na2S)
- Water (H2O)
