Answer:
B. oxidation; reduction
Explanation:
A voltaic cell is electro-chemical cell in which chemical energy is converted into electrical energy.
1. This cell utilizes chemical reaction to generate electric.\
2. there two electrode anode and cathode
3. At Anode oxidation occurs
4. At cathode reduction occurs
5. chemical is present in the cell which is electrolyte which completes the circuit of the voltaic cell.
- oxidation is the process in which there is loss of electrons
- Reduction is the process in which there is gain of electrons
___________________________________________________
Based on above discussion
At anode oxidation takes place
At cathode reduction takes place.
Hence, correct option is B. oxidation; reduction

Explanation:
Two moles of magnesium (Mg) and five moles of oxygen (O2) are placed in a reaction vessel. When magnesium is ignited, it reacts with oxygen. What is the limiting reactant in this experiment?
Mg + O2 → MgO (unbalanced)
first, balance the equation
2Mg +O2-------> 2MgO
two magnesium atoms react with one diatomic oxygen molecule
there is a 1:1 ratio of magnesium to oxygen atoms
but we have 2 moles of magnesium atoms and 2X5 = 10 moles of oxygen atoms
the lesser magnesium LIMITS the amount of product we can make, so it is the LIMITING REAGENT.
Answer:
A) E° = 4.40 V
B) ΔG° = -8.49 × 10⁵ J
Explanation:
Let's consider the following redox reaction.
2 Li(s) +Cl₂(g) → 2 Li⁺(aq) + 2 Cl⁻(aq)
We can write the corresponding half-reactions.
Cathode (reduction): Cl₂(g) + 2 e⁻ → 2 Cl⁻(aq) E°red = 1.36 V
Anode (oxidation): 2 Li(s) → 2 Li⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻ E°red = -3.04
<em>A) Calculate the cell potential of this reaction under standard reaction conditions.</em>
The standard cell potential (E°) is the difference between the reduction potential of the cathode and the reduction potential of the anode.
E° = E°red, cat - E°red, an = 1.36 V - (-3.04 V) 4.40 V
<em>B) Calculate the free energy ΔG° of the reaction.</em>
We can calculate Gibbs free energy (ΔG°) using the following expression.
ΔG° = -n.F.E°
where,
n are the moles of electrons transferred
F is Faraday's constant
ΔG° = - 2 mol × (96468 J/V.mol) × 4.40 V = -8.49 × 10⁵ J
Answer:
the first thing you do is do your experiment then title it. then state the purpose of the experiment. included a summary of the experiment. make a list of the materials you used. present all the steps in order to make the experiment possible. note any changes to the original procedure. this is basically the steps you have to do in order to make your scientific experiment.
Cu(NO3)2>NO2+CuO+O2 balanced: 2Cu(NO3)2=4NO2+2CuO+O2
