2. it becomes a liquid
4. its molecules lose energy
The change in state is due to the loss of energy.
A, as carbon is an atomic substance - element
Answer:
1.373 mol H₂O
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Chemistry - Atomic Structure</u>
- Reading a Periodic Table
- Using Dimensional Analysis
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
24.75 g H₂O
<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>
Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol
Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol
Molar Mass of H₂O - 2(1.01) + 16.00 = 18.02 g/mol
<u>Step 3: Convert</u>
<u />
= 1.37347 mol H₂O
<u>Step 4: Check</u>
<em>We are given 4 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules and round.</em>
1.37347 mol H₂O ≈ 1.373 mol H₂O
Answer:
Part A. The half-cell B is the cathode and the half-cell A is the anode
Part B. 0.017V
Explanation:
Part A
The electrons must go from the anode to the cathode. At the anode oxidation takes place, and at the cathode a reduction, so the flow of electrons must go from the less concentrated solution to the most one (at oxidation the concentration intends to increase, and at the reduction, the concentration intends to decrease).
So, the half-cell B is the cathode and the half-cell A is the anode.
Part B
By the Nersnt equation:
E°cell = E° - (0.0592/n)*log[anode]/[cathode]
Where n is the number of electrons being changed in the reaction, in this case, n = 2 (Sn goes from S⁺²). Because the half-reactions are the same, the reduction potential of the anode is equal to the cathode, and E° = 0 V.
E°cell = 0 - (0.0592/2)*log(0.23/0.87)
E°cell = 0.017V
