Answer:

a. -0.63 V

b. No

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Standard reduction potential of the anode (E°red): -1.33 V
  • Minimum standard cell potential (E°cell): 0.70 V

Step 2: Calculate the required standard reduction potential of the cathode

The galvanic cell must provide at least 0.70V of electrical power, that is:

E°cell > 0.70 V    [1]

We can calculate the standard reduction potential of the cathode (E°cat) using the following expression.

E°cell = E°cat - E°an   [2]

If we combine [1] and [2], we get,

E°cat - E°an > 0.70 V

E°cat > 0.70 V + E°an

E°cat > 0.70 V + (-1.33 V)

E°cat > -0.63 V

The minimum E°cat is -0.63 V and there is no maximum E°cat.

Determine ΔH for the reaction CaCO3 → CaO + CO2 given these data: 2 Ca + 2 C + 3 O2 → 2 CaCO3 ΔH = −2,414 kJ C + O2 → CO2 ΔH = −
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

The ΔH for the reaction is -456.5 KJ

Explanation:

Here we want to determine ΔH for the reaction;

Mathematically;

ΔH = ΔH(product) - ΔH(reactant)

In the case of the first reaction;

ΔH = ΔH(CaO) + ΔH(CO2) - ΔH(CaCO3)  ...........................(*)

From the other reactions, we can get the respective ΔH for the individual molecule in the reaction

In second reaction;

Kindly note that for elements, molecule of gases, ΔH = 0

What this means is that throughout the solution;

ΔH(Ca)  = 0 KJ

ΔH(O2) = 0 KJ

ΔH(C) = 0 KJ

Thus, in writing the equation for the subsequent chemical reactions, we shall need to write and equate the overall ΔH for the reaction to that of the product alone

So in the second reaction

ΔH = 2ΔH(CaCO3)

Thus;

-2414/2 = ΔH(CaCO3)

ΔH(CaCO3) = -1,207  KJ

Moving to the third reaction, we have;

ΔH = ΔH(CO2)

Hence ΔH(CO2) = -393.5 KJ

For the last reaction;

ΔH = ΔH(CaO)

Hence ΔH(CaO) = -1270 KJ

Going back to equation *

ΔH = ΔH(CaO) + ΔH(CO2) - ΔH(CaCO3)

Using the values of the ΔH  of the respective molecules given above,

ΔH  = -1270 + (-393.5) - (-1207)

ΔH  = -456.5 KJ
