Answer:

Explanation:

The cell reaction properly written is shown below:

              Cu|Cu²⁺_{aq} || Ag⁺_{aq} | Ag

From this cell reaction, to get the net ionic equation, we have to split the reaction into their proper oxidation and reduction halves. This way, we can know that is happening at the electrodes and derive the overall net equation.

  Oxidation half:

                  Cu_{s}  ⇄ Cu²⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻

At the anode, oxidation occurs.

  Reduction half:

                  Ag⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻ ⇄ Ag_{s}

At the cathode, reduction occurs.

To derive the overall reaction, we must balance the atoms and charges:

             Cu_{s}  ⇄ Cu²⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻

              Ag⁺_{aq} + e⁻ ⇄ Ag_{s}

  we multiply the second reaction by 2 to balance up:

         2Ag⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻ ⇄ 2Ag_{s}

The net reaction equation:

Cu_{s} + 2Ag⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻⇄ Cu²⁺_{aq} + 2e⁻ + 2Ag_{s}

We then cancel out the electrons from both sides since they appear on both the reactant and product side:

  Cu_{s} + 2Ag⁺_{aq} ⇄ Cu²⁺_{aq} + 2Ag_{s}

How many atoms are in 2.10 g of K? molar mass of K=39.10g/mole.
Alborosie

Answer:

<h3>The answer is option B</h3>

Explanation:

To calculate the number of atoms we must first calculate the number of moles

Molar mass = mass / number of moles

number of moles = mass / Molar mass

Molar mass (K) = 39.10mole

mass = 2.10g

number of moles = 2.10/ 39.10

= 0.0537mol

After that we use the formula

N = n × L

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10^23 entities

Number of K atoms is

N = 0.0537 × 6.02 × 10^13

<h3>N = 3.23×10^22 atoms of K</h3>

Hope this helps you.

you are studying an animal that produces only one offspring every three or four years. Is it likely to use external or internal
Igoryamba

Answer:

internal fertilization

Explanation:

Internal fertilization enhances the fertilization of eggs by a specific male. Fewer offspring are produced through this method, but their survival rate is higher than that for external fertilization.

Write Lewis structures for the following molecules: (a) ICl, (b) PH3, (c) P4 (each P is bonded to three other P atoms), (d) H2S,
spin [16.1K]

Answer :  The Lewis-dot structure for the following molecules are shown below.

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

Now we have to determine the Lewis-dot structure for the following molecules.

(a) The given molecule is, ICl

As we know that iodine and chlorine have '7' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in ICl = 7 + 7 = 14

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 2 number of bonding electrons and 12 number of non-bonding electrons.

(b) The given molecule is, PH_3

As we know that phosphorous has '5' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in PH_3 = 5 + 3(1) = 8

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 6 number of bonding electrons and 2 number of non-bonding electrons.

(c) The given molecule is, P_4

As we know that phosphorous has '5' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in P_4 = 4(5) = 20

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 6 number of bonding electrons and 14 number of non-bonding electrons.

(d) The given molecule is, H_2S

As we know that sulfur has '6' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in H_2S = 6 + 2(1) = 8

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 4 number of bonding electrons and 4 number of non-bonding electrons.

(e) The given molecule is, N_2H_4

As we know that nitrogen has '5' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in N_2H_4 = 2(5) + 4(1) = 14

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 10 number of bonding electrons and 4 number of non-bonding electrons.

(f) The given molecule is, HClO_3

As we know that chlorine has '7' valence electrons, oxygen has '6' valence electrons and hydrogen has '1' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in HClO_3 = 1 + 7 + 3(6) = 26

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 12 number of bonding electrons and 14 number of non-bonding electrons.

(g) The given molecule is, COBr_2

As we know that bromine has '7' valence electrons, oxygen has '6' valence electrons and carbon has '4' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in COBr_2 = 4 + 6 + 2(7) = 24

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 8 number of bonding electrons and 16 number of non-bonding electrons.
