a sample of copper wire with a mass of 1.659 g is heated with excess powdered sulfur until the copper has combined with the sulf

ur, and all the extra sulfur has been burned off. The final product (a sulfide of copper ) has a mass of 2.080 g. Calculate the empirical formula of the product, and name it.

Copper mass = 1.659
Copper moles = 1.659 / 64 = 0.0259

Sulfur mass = 2.08 - 1.659 = 0.421
Sulfur moles = 0.421  / 32 = 0.0131

Ratio Copper : Sulfur = 2 : 1

Empirical formula: Cu ₂ S
Name: Copper (I) sulfide

Answer:

Ok so,  b. A redox reaction occurs in an electrochemical cell, where silver (Ag) is oxidized and nickel (Ni) is reduced - In voltaic cells, also called galvanic cells, oxidation occurs at the anode and reduction occurs at the cathode. A mnemonic for this is "An Ox. Red Cat." So since silver is oxidized, the silver half-cell is the anode. And the nickel half-cell is the cathode...

i. Write the half-reactions for this reaction, indicating the oxidation half-reaction and the reduction half-reaction- The substance having highest positive  potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction. Here, zinc will always undergo reduction reaction will get reduced

ii. Which metal is the anode, and which is the cathode?-The anode is where the oxidation reaction takes place. In other words, this is where the metal loses electrons. The cathode is where the reduction reaction takes place.

iii. Calculate the standard potential (voltage) of the cell

Look up the reduction potential,

E

, for the reduction half-reaction in a table of reduction potentials

Look up the reduction potential for the reverse of the oxidation half-reaction and reverse the sign to obtain the oxidation potential. For the oxidation half-reaction,

iv. What kind of electrochemical cell is this? Explain your answer.

All parts in the electrochemical cells are labeled in second figure. Following are the part in electrochemical cells

1) Anode 2) Cathode 3) gold Stripe (Electrode) 4) Aluminium Glasses (Electrode) 5) Connecting wires 6) Battery

In a certain industrial process involving a heterogeneous catalyst, the volume of the catalyst (in the shape of a sphere) is 10.
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

a. The second run will be faster.

d. The second run has twice the surface area.

Explanation:

The rate of a reaction is proportional to the surface area of a catalyst. Given the volume (V) of a sphere, we can find its surface area (A) using the following expression.

A=\pi ^{1/3} (6V)^{2/3}

The area of the 10.0 cm³-sphere is:

A=\pi ^{1/3} (6.10.0)^{2/3}=22.4cm^{2}

The area of each 1.25 cm³-sphere is:

A=\pi ^{1/3} (6. 1.25)^{2/3}=5.61cm^{2}

The total area of the 8 1.25cm³-spheres is 8 × 5.61 cm² = 44.9 cm²

The ratio of  8 1.25cm³-sphere to 10.0 cm³-sphere is 44.9 cm²/22.4 cm² = 2.00

Since the surface area is doubled, the second run will be faster.

How might scientific knowledge about monoculture farming affect societal decisions? Please be sure to answer in complete sentenc
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

in monoculture farming , we produce a single species of a livestock or plant in large quantity.

Even though it is very effective, producing a mass number of a single organism in an Area will risk of endangering the existence of a specific nutrient ( because that large number of organism is basically eating the same thing)

which lead to societal decision such as the founding of The Livestock conservancy, or other environmental protection organization

Which of the following has the greatest mass, in grams? 1 atom of lead (Pb) 0.5 mol silver (Ag) atoms 0.3 mol gold (Au) atoms 25
Strike441 [17]

Answer : Option C) 0.3 mol of Gold.

Explanation : Amongst the options given in the question, 0.3 mol of Au is the greatest in mass in grams.

As 0.3 mol X atomic weight of Au (196.966) = 59.088 grams;

Silver has 0.5 mol X atomic weight of Ag (107.86) = 53.93 grams;

The other options are not relevant as they deal in the atomic range which has mass value very less as compared to the moles of elements.

Therefore, it is clear that Au has the greatest mass amongst the given choices.

How much water would I need to add to 700 mL of a 2.7 M KCl solution to make a 1.0 M solution?
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

1190\ \text{mL}

Explanation:

M_1 = Initial Concentration of KCl = 2.7 M

V_1 = Volume of KCl = 1 M

M_2 = Final concentration of KCl = 1 M

V_2 = Amount of water

We have the relation

M_1V_1=M_2V_2\\\Rightarrow V_2=\dfrac{M_1V_1}{M_2}\\\Rightarrow V_2=\dfrac{2.7\times 700}{1}\\\Rightarrow V_2=1890\ \text{mL}

The amount of water that is to be added is 1890-700=1190\ \text{mL}.
