Define a salt bridge. Question 6 options: A pathway between the cathode and anode in which ions are oxidized. A pathway by which

counterions can flow between the half-cells without the solutions in the half-cell totally mixing. A pathway in which no ions flow. A pathway between the cathode and anode in which ions are reduced. A pathway, composed of salt water, that ions pass through.

Answer:

A pathway by which counterions can flow between the half-cells without the solutions in the half-cell totally mixing.

Explanation:

In a voltaic cell, oxidation occurs at the anode and reduction occurs at the cathode.

Hence, there is a build up of positive ions at the anode and a build up of negative ions at the cathode. This tends to disrupt the electrical neutrality of the half cells.

Hence, there is a need for negative ions in the salt bridge to flow towards the anode and positive ions in the salt bridge to flow towards the cathode in order to maintain the electrical neutrality of the cells.

Hence, a salt bridge provides a pathway by which counterions can flow between the half-cells without the solutions in the half-cell totally mixing.

If you add a solution of NaOH to a solution of H₂CO₃, two reactions occur, one after the other. Write the chemical equations for
Crazy boy [7]

We have a solution of NaOH and H₂CO₃

First, NaOH will dissociate into Na⁺ and OH⁻ ions

The Na⁺ ion will substitute one of the Hydrogen atoms on H₂CO₃ to form NaHCO₃

The H⁺ released from the substitution will bond with the OH⁻ ion to form a water molecule

If there were to be another NaOH molecule, a similar substitution will take place, substituting the second hydrogen from H₂CO₃ as well to form Na₂CO₃

How many kj of heat are needed to completely melt 32.3 g of h2o, given that the water is at its melting point? the heat of fusio
timurjin [86]

Answer: fourth option, 10.8 kJ


Explanation:


The <em>heat of fusion</em>, also named latent heat of fusion, is the amount of heat energy required to change the state of a substance from solid to liquid (at constant pressure).


The data of the <em>heat of fusions</em> of the substances are reported in tables and they can be shown either per mole or per gram of substance.


In this case we have that the<em> heat of fusion for water </em>is reported per mole: <em>6.02 kJ/mole</em>.


The formula to calculate <em>how many kJ of heat (total heat) are needed to completely melt 32.3 g of water, given that the water is at its melting point</em> is:

  • Heat = number of moles × heat of fusion

The calculations are:

  • number of moles = mass / molar mass

        number of moles = 32.3 g / 18.015 g/mol = 1.79 mol

       

  • Heat = 1.79 mol × 6.02 kJ / mol = 10.8 kJ ← answer
