Answer:

C. An electron at this electrode has a higher potential energy than it has at a standard hydrogen electrode.

Explanation:

The standard hydrogen electrode (SHE) is used to measure the electrode potential of substances. The standard hydrogen electrode is arbitrarily assigned an electrode potential of zero. Recall that electrode potentials are always measured as reduction potentials in electrochemical systems.

For an electrode that has a negative electrode potential, electrons at this electrode have a higher potential energy compared to electrons at the standard hydrogen electrode. Electrons flow from this electrode to the hydrogen electrode.

On the other hand, a positive electrode potential implies that an electron at this electrode has a lower potential energy than it has at a standard hydrogen electrode. Hence electrons will flow from the standard hydrogen electrode to this electrode.

Why doesn’t alcohol freeze?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer: Because it's a combination of chemicals, vodka doesn't freeze at the same temperature as either water or alcohol. Of course, vodka will freeze, but not at the temperature of an ordinary freezer. This is because vodka contains enough alcohol to lower the freezing point of water below the -17°C of your typical freezer.

A material has a volume of 63.0 cm3 and a mass of 28 grams.  What is the density of the material in g/cm3 to the correct number
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

0.4444 g/cm³ ≅ 0.44 g/cm³ (2 significant figures).

Explanation:

  • Knowing that:

<em>d = m/V,</em>

where, d is the density of the material (g/cm³).

m is the mass of the material (m = 28 g).

V is the volume of the material (V = 63.0 cm³).

<em>∴ d = m/V </em>= (28 g)/(63.0 cm³) = <em>0.4444 g/cm³ ≅ 0.44 g/cm³ (2 significant figures).</em>

What is colligative property? why does theproperty changes the way that it does when the amount of solute is increased. State an
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Colligative properties are those substances that depend on the number of substances in the solution, not in the identity of that substance. The property changes the way that it does when the amount of solute is increased because it enables the solute to be scattered more. For example, the freezing point of salt water is lower than that of the pure water due to the salt ions present in water.
