Answer: The correct option is ALL OF THE ABOVE.

Explanation:

TITRATION is a type of volumetric analysis which is used for determining the concentration of solutions. In this process a specific volume of a solution is placed in a conical flask by means of a pipette and small quantities of a second solution is slowly added from a burette until the end point is reached. This is determined by a means of an indicator which shows a characteristic colour change.

During titration, the following precautions should be followed to avoid errors and maintain standardisation in the experiment.

--> Any air bubble in the burette and pipette must be removed during measurement

--> the burette tap should be tightened to avoid leakage.

--> Remove the funnel from the burette before taking any reading to avoid errors in reading the volume.

--> use the base solution such as Sodium Hydroxide Solution to rinse the burette after washing with soap and tap water:

• to remove any air bubble and fill it's tip

• to remove any residual liquid from the water and soap solution which may interfere with the results of the experiment.

• to check if the burette is in good condition.

Therefore all of the above options to the question are correct.

How many electrons would be transferred in either a voltaic or electrolytic cell that uses the following half reactions
omeli [17]

Answer:

Numbers of electrons transferred in the electrolytic or voltaic cell is 6 electrons.

Explanation:

Fe^{3+} (aq) + 3 e^-\rightarrow Fe (s) ,E^o = -0.036 V

Mg^{2+}(aq) + 2 e^- \rightarrow Mg (s),E^o = -2.37 V

The substance having highest positive reduction E^o potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction.

Reduction : cathode

Fe^{3+} (aq) + 3 e^-\rightarrow Fe (s) ,E^o = -0.036 V..[1]

Oxidation: anode

Mg(s)\rightarrow Mg^{2+}(aq) + 2 e^-,E^o = 2.37 V..[2]

Oxidation reaction occurs at anode and reduction reaction occurs at cathode.

To calculate the E^o_{cell} of the reaction, we use the equation:

E^o_{cell}=E^o_{red,cathode}-E^o_{red,anode}

E^o_{cell}=-0.036V-(-2.37 V)=2.334 V

The overall reaction will be:

2 × [1] + 3 × [2] :

2Fe^{3+} (aq) + 3Mg(s)+6e^-\rightarrow 2Fe (s)+3Mg^{2+}(aq)+6e^-

Electrons on both sides will get cancelled :

2Fe^{3+} (aq) + 3Mg(s)\rightarrow 2Fe (s)+3Mg^{2+}(aq)

Numbers of electrons transferred in the electrolytic or voltaic cell is 6 electrons.

How many neutrons are there in 9 molecules of P4 with mass number 31 and proton number 15?
aalyn [17]

A = mass number which is equal to the total number of protons + number of neutrons, Z= atomic number of any element which is also indicates Number of protons or number of electron in the given atom.


The formula to calculate neutron would be :

mass number - proton  

31   - 15     = 16

Thus 16 neutrons are found in one atom of P  

There are 4 atom in one molecule

Thus  

4 atom /1 molecule * 9 molecule * 16 neutron / 1 atom  

= 4*9*16= 576 neutrons
