The Nernst equation allows us to predict the cell potential for voltaic cells under conditions other than the standard conditions of 1M, 1 atm, 25°C. The effects of different temperatures and concentrations may be tracked in terms of the Gibbs energy change ΔG. This free energy change depends upon the temperature & concentrations according to ΔG = ΔG° + RTInQ where ΔG° is the free energy change under conditions and Q is the thermodynamic reaction quotient. The free energy change is related to the cell potential Ecell by ΔG= nFEcell
so for non-standard conditions
-nFEcell = -nFE°cell + RT InQ
or
Ecell = E°cell - RT/nF (InQ)
which is called Nernst equation.
Answer:
When you pull a rubber band there is elastic potential energy stored in the rubber band but once you let go of either side the EPE turns into Kinetic Energy.
Answer:
The reaction is exothermic.
Explanation:
Phenolphthalein is often used as an indicator in acid–base titrations. For this application, it turns colorless in acidic solutions and pink in basic solutions. Phenolphthalein is slightly soluble in water and usually is dissolved in alcohols for use in experiments.
