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}

A student sets up the following equation...
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

The answer to your question is given below

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Concentration (g/mL) = 0.04 g/mL

Concentration (g/L) =?

We can convert g/mL to g/L by doing the following:

1 g/mL = 1000 g/L

Therefore,

0.04 g/mL = 0.04 g/mL × 1000 g/L / 1 g/mL

0.04 g/mL = 40 g/L

0.04 g/mL is equivalent to 40 g/L.

Thus, the concentration (g/L) is 40 g/L

An alcohol is 68.84 % C and 4.962 % H by mass. The rest is oxygen. What is the empirical formula of the alcohol? Enter the eleme
Dafna1 [17]

The empirical formula is C₇H₆O₂.

Assume that you have 100 g of the compound.

Then you have 68.84 g C and 4.962 g H.

Mass of O = (100 – 68.84 – 4.962) g = 26.20 g O.

Now, we must convert these masses to moles and find their ratios.

From here on, I like to summarize the calculations in a table.

<u>Element</u>     <u>Mass/g</u>    <u>Moles</u>    <u>Ratio</u>    <u> ×2</u>   <u>Integers</u>  

     C           68.84      5.732    3.501  7.001       7

     H            4.962    4.923    3.006  6.012      6

     O          26.20      1.638     1          2             2

The empirical formula is C₇H₆O₂.

The chemical reaction in which two molecules combine to form a larger molecule, and water is released is called
Semmy [17]

Answer: condenstation.


Justification:


The polymerization by condensation is a well know chemical reaction in which two monomers ("small" molecules), each with (at least) two functional groups, combine and relase water as by-product. Actually, even if the by-product released is not water, yet the reaction is called condenstation, since the mechanism is basically the same.


An example of such reaction is the manufacturing of nylon 6,6, which is produced from adipic acid and 1,6-diamine hexane:


HOOC - [CH₂]₄ - COOH + nH₂N - [CH₂]₆ - NH₂ → - nylon - + nH₂O


I omitted the formula of nylon because it is large, and that is not the core of the question but the fact the kind of reaction: two molecules combine to form is a larger molecule, and water is released
