Answer:
D. Ni²⁺
Explanation:
We know at once that the answer cannot be A or C, because Ni and Cu are already in their lowest oxidation states.
The correct answer must be either B or D.
An electrolytic cell is the opposite of a galvanic cell. In the former, the reaction proceeds spontaneously. In the latter, you must force the reaction to occur.
One strategy to solve this problem is:
- Look up the standard reduction potentials for the half reaction·
- Figure out the spontaneous direction.
- Write the equation in the reverse direction.
1. Standard reduction potentials
E°/V
Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⟶ Cu; 0.3419
Ni²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⟶ Ni; -0.257
2. Galvanic Cell
We reverse the direction of the more negative half cell and add.
<u>E°/V
</u>
Ni ⟶ Ni²⁺ + 2e⁻; 0.257
<u>Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⟶ Cu; </u> 0.3419
Ni + Cu²⁺ ⟶ Cu + Ni²⁺; 0.599
This is the spontaneous direction.
Cu²⁺ is reduced to Cu.
3. Electrochemical cell
<u>E°/V</u>
Ni²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⟶ Ni; -0.257
<u>Cu ⟶ Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻; </u> <u>-0.3419</u>
Cu + Ni²⁺ ⟶ Ni + Cu²⁺; -0.599
This is the non-spontaneous direction.
Ni²⁺ is reduced to Ni in the electrolytic cell.
Answer:
-second
Explanation:
6-ethyl-2-octyne is an unsaturated compound with a triple bond.
6-ethyl-2-octyne will have a triple bound attached to the second carbon. The suffix -yne suggests that compound carry a triple bond and the number "2" before suffix refers to the position of triple bond that is second carbon.
Hence, the correct option is "-second ".
Answer: The equilibrium concentration of 
will be much smaller than the equilibrium concentration of 
, because Keq<<1
Explanation:
Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as 
K is the constant of a certain reaction when it is in equilibrium, while Q is the quotient of activities of products and reactants at any stage other than equilibrium of a reaction.
For the given chemical reaction:
The expression for is written as:
![K=\frac{[H_3O^+]\times [BrO^-]}{[HBrO]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=K%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BH_3O%5E%2B%5D%5Ctimes%20%5BBrO%5E-%5D%7D%7B%5BHBrO%5D%7D)
Concentration of pure solids and liquids is taken as 1.
Thus as 
, That means the concentration of products is less as the reaction does not proceed much towards the forward direction.
Answer:
Because Iodine is a non-polar but water is polar therefore it can not have a hydrogen bond or any permanent dipole-dipole interactions
