I don’t know what the question is asking
Answer:
a) Aqueous LiBr = Hydrogen Gas
b) Aqueous AgBr = solid Ag
c) Molten LiBr = solid Li
c) Molten AgBr = Solid Ag
Explanation:
a) Aqueous LiBr
This sample produces Hydrogen gas, because the H+ (conteined in the water) has a reduction potential higher than the Li+ from the salt. Therefore the hydrogen cation will reduce instead of the lithium one and form the gas.
b) Aqueous AgBr
This sample produces Solid Ag, because the Ag+ has a reduction potential higher than the H+ from the water. Therefore the silver cation will reduce instead of the hydrogen one and form the solid.
c) Molten LiBr
In a molten binary salt like LiBr there is only one cation present in the cathod. In this case the Li+, so it will reduce and form solid Li.
c) Molten AgBr
The same as the item above: there is only one cation present in the cathod. In this case the Ag+, so it will reduce and form solid Ag.
Answer:
(1) breaking a pencil (2) rusting of iron
Explanation:
breaking a pencil does not alter the chemical properties of the pencil, it merely breaks it into 2 while the rusting of iron is changing the properties chemically because the iron is oxidizing and reacting with the water and oxygen in the atmosphere
