How does a volcano form?

1 answer:

5 0

A volcano is formed when magma (Lava) spews up from deep within the earth. After each eruption the Volcano gets bigger and bigger, so basically after periods of time the volcano will get larger. Lava will rise in cracks in the earth or weak spots in the earths crust. The pressure is relieved thus resulting in a volcanic eruptions it forms the new crust and then eventually builds up in that spot making a volcano. They also form in places called hot spots and various other places.

Based on the sign of E cell, classify these reactions as spontaneous or non spontaneous as written.? assume standard conditions.

A electrochemical reaction is said to be spontaneous, if $E^{0} cell is positive.$

Answer 1:
Consider reaction: Ni^2+ (aq) + S^2- (aq) ----> + Ni (s) + S (s)

The cell representation of above reaction is given by;
 $S^{2-}/S // Ni^{2+}/Ni$

Hence, $E^{0}cell = E^{0} Ni^{2+/Ni} - E^{0} S/S^{2-}$
we know that, ${E^{0} Ni^{2+}/Ni = -0.25 v$
and ${E^{0} S/ S^{2-} = -0.47 v$

Therefore, $E^{0} cell$ = - 0.25 - (-0.47) = 0.22 v

Since, $E^{0} cell$ is positive, hence cell reaction is spontaneous

Answer 2:
Consider reaction: Pb^2+ (aq) +H2 (g) ----> Pb (s) +2H^+ (aq)

The cell representation of above reaction is given by;
 $H_{2} / H^{+} // Pb^{2+} /Pb$

Hence, $E^{0}cell = E^{0} Pb/Pb^{2+} - E^{0} H_{2}/H^{+}$
we know that, ${E^{0} Pb^{2+}/Pb = -0.126 v$
and ${E^{0} H_{2}/ H^{+} = -0 v$

Therefore, $E^{0} cell$ = - 0.126 - 0 = -0.126 v

Since, $E^{0} cell$ is negative, hence cell reaction is non-spontaneous.

Answer 3:
Consider reaction: 2Ag^+ (aq) + Cr(s) ---> 2 Ag (s) +Cr^2+ (aq)

The cell representation of above reaction is given by;
 $Cr/Cr^{2+} // Ag^{+}/Ag$

Hence, $E^{0}cell = E^{0} Ag^{+}/Ag - E^{0} Cr/Cr^{2+}$
we know that, ${E^{0} Ag^{+}/Ag = -0.22 v$
and ${E^{0} Cr/ Cr^{2+} = -0.913 v$

Therefore, $E^{0} cell$ = - 0.22 - (-0.913) = 0.693 v

Since, $E^{0} cell$ is positive, hence cell reaction is spontaneous

Easy question, need help

jeka94

Answer: B= 210 amps

Explanation:

175

0.75 so you divide it so the answer it 210

since first you find for one

then you multiply 0.75 to the answer you get

Hope this helps :)
