The anode is the electrode where the oxidation occurs.
Cathode is the electrode where the reducction occurs.
Equations:
Mn(2+) + 2e- ---> Mn(s) Eo = - 1.18 V
2Fe(3+) + 2e- ----> 2 Fe(2+) 2Eo = + 1.54 V
The electrons flow from the electrode with the lower Eo to the electrode with the higher Eo yielding to a positive voltage.
Eo = 1.54 V - (- 1.18) = 1.54 + 1.18 = 2.72
Answer: 2.72 V
Atoms return to their ground state by emitting a photon of light.
Answer:
The likely causes inferred about the differences in times observed are;
1) Slight increase of the vapor pressure of the air immediately above the water surface due to the presence of a lid
2) Variation of heat input due to wind draft that alters the focus of the flame
3) The introduction of impurities into the water from the water source or through the sourcing mediums or containers or during handling of the water
Explanation:
The factors that affect the boiling point of water includes;
1) The amount of heat supplied, to the water
2) Vapor pressure above the water surface
3) Presence of impurities in the water
Therefore, the most likely causes for the difference in the times observed for the water to boil in the order of increasing probability of cause and effect are therefore;
1) Slight increase of the vapor pressure of the air immediately above the water surface due to the presence of a lid
2) Variation of heat input due to wind draft that alters the focus of the flame
3) The introduction of impurities into the water from the water source or through the sourcing mediums or containers or during handling of the water.
Answer:
BaF2(s) ------> Ba2 (aq) + 2F- (aq)
Explanation:
Entropy refers to the degree of disorderliness in a system. Processes that lead to greater disorderliness in a system are said to increase the entropy of the system or lead to a positive value of ΔS.
If we consider the process, BaF2(s) ------> Ba2 (aq) + 2F- (aq), we will notice that ions were produced in solution thereby increasing the disorderliness of the system.
