Balance the equation by ion electron method

For the Zn - Cu^2+ voltaic cell Zn(s) + Cu^2+(aq, 1M) + Cu(s) E degree _cell = 1.10 V Given that the standard reduction potentia

Fittoniya [83]

Answer : The value of $E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}$ is, 0.34 V

Explanation :

Here, copper will undergo reduction reaction will get reduced. Zinc will undergo oxidation reaction and will get oxidized.

The oxidation-reduction half cell reaction will be,

Oxidation half reaction: $Zn\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+2e^-$

Reduction half reaction: $Cu^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Cu$

Oxidation reaction occurs at anode and reduction reaction occurs at cathode. That means, gold shows reduction and occurs at cathode and chromium shows oxidation and occurs at anode.

The overall balanced equation of the cell is,

$Zn+Cu^{2+}\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+Cu$

To calculate the $E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}$ of the reaction, we use the equation:

$E^o_{cell}=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}$

$E^o_{cell}=E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}-E^o_{(Zn^{2+}/Zn)}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1.10V=E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}-(-0.76V)$

$E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}=0.34V$

Hence, the value of $E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}$ is, 0.34 V

Answer:

The correct answer is - they can create genetic diversity as well and reproduce without mate when necessary.

Explanation:

Sexual reproduction provides an organism with genetic diversity and variation by the process and it required two mates and a longer time to pollination and fertilization and is used in normal conditions.

In case of a threat, such organisms use asexual reproduction to increase their number as in asexual reproduction no need of mate, an organism can grow and increase on its own it provides to not to exitinct.

Darin skateboarded to the north at 4 m/s. In 5 seconds, he sped up to 7 m/s. What was his acceleration?

Julli [10]

To solve this problem we can use following equation.

v =u + at

Where v is the final velocity (m/s), u is the initial velocity (m/s), a is the acceleration (m/s²) and t is the time taken (s).

v = 7 m/s
u = 4 m/s
a = ?
t = 5 s

By applying the equation, we can get
7 m/s = 4 m/s + a x 5 s
3 m/s = a x 5 s
a = 0.6 m/s²

Hence, the acceleration is 0.6 m/s² towards north.

Answer is "C".

Use LeChâtelier's principle explain why the concentration of NO at equilibrium increases when the reacuon takes place at higher

Tatiana [17]

increasing the temperature shifts the equilibrium in the direction of the reaction in which heat is absorbed.

Explanation:

The concentration of NO at equilibrium will increase when the reaction takes place at a higher temperature because increasing the temperature shifts the equilibrium in the direction of the reaction in which heat is absorbed.

The reaction is an endothermic reaction.

N₂ + O₂ + heat ⇄ 2NO

According to Le Chatelier's principle, "if any of the conditions of a system in equilibrium is changed the system will adjust itself in order to annul the effect of the change".

In an endothermic reaction, heat is usually absorbed.
We see that in the backward reaction, heat is absorbed.
If the temperature of this reaction is increased, the backward reaction is favored more.
Since the reactants are combining better, more products NO results.

What is the position of the element ammonia in periodic table?

Rashid [163]

Ammonia isn't an element, it's a compound made by mixing the elements Nitrogen and Hydrogen in the Haber process. Therefore, it isn't on the periodic table
