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 molecules are there in 79g of Fe2O3?
weqwewe [10]
There are approximately 160 grams in 1 mol of fe203 molecules therefore there would be 79/160 = 0.49375 mols of fe203 molecules in 79 grams therefore 5 atoms in total for each molecule of fe203 therefore 79/160 *5 =79/32=2.46875 mols in atoms

Which law states that the volume and absolute temperature of a fixed quantity of gas are directly proportional under constant pr
Delvig [45]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: Charle's Law.

<h2>Why?</h2>

The law that states that the volume and absolute temperature of a fixed quantity of gas (ideal gas) are proportional under constant pressure is the Charle's Law, also known as the law of volumes.

The law describes how a gas kept under constant pressure tends to expand when the temperature increases and it's described by the following equation:

\frac{V}{T}=k

Where,

V=Volume\\T=Temperature\\k=constant

Also, to describe the relationship between two differents volumes at different temperatures, we have:

\frac{V_{i}}{T_{i}}=\frac{V_{f}}{T_{f}}

Where,

V_{i}=InitialVolume\\T_{i}=InitialTemperature\\V_{f}=FinalVolume\\T_{f}=FinalTemperature

Have a nice day!

The metal tantalum becomes superconducting at temperatures below 4.483 K. Calculate the temperature at which tantalum becomes su
masha68 [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is "-268.667°C".

Explanation:

Given:

Temperature,

= 4.483 K (below)

Now,

The formula of temperature conversion will be:

⇒ T(^{\circ} C)=T(K)-273.15

By putting the values, we get

⇒            =4.483-273.15

⇒            =-268.667^{\circ} C

Thus the above is the correct answer.
