A. Zn²⁺

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Cations of several elements

Required

The least to be reduced

Solution

If we look at the voltaic series:

<em>Li-K-Ba-Ca-Na-Mg-Al-Mn- (H2O) -Zn-Cr-Fe²⁺-Cd-Co-Ni-Sn-Pb- (H) -Cu-Hg-Fe³⁺-Ag-Pt-Au </em>

The electrode which is easier to reduce than the hydrogen (H2) electrode has a positive sign (E red= +) and is located to the right of the voltaic series (right of H)

The electrode which is easier to oxidize than the hydrogen (H2) electrode and is difficult to experience reduction has a negative sign (E red= -) and is located to the left of the voltaic series (left of H)

Or you can look at the standard reduction potential value of the metals in the answer options, and the most negative reduction E° value which will be difficult to reduce.

The Zn metal is located far left of the other metals in the answer choices, so it is the most difficult to reduce

If the volume of wet gas collected over water is 85.0 mL at 20°C and 760 mm Hg , what is the volume of dry gas at STP conditions
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer: 77.4 mL

Explanation:

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is:

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of dry gas = (760 - 17.5) mmHg= 742.5 mm Hg

P_2 = final pressure of dry gas at STP =  760 mm Hg

V_1 = initial volume of dry gas = 85.0 mL

V_2 = final volume of dry gas at STP = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of dry gas = 20^oC=273+20=293K

T_2 = final temperature of dry gas at STP = 0^oC=273+0=273K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get the final volume of wet gas at STP

\frac{742.5mmHg\times 85.0ml}{293K}=\frac{760mmHg\times V_2}{273K}

V_2=77.4mL

Volume of dry gas at STP is 77.4 mL.

Answer:

PBr3 - Molecule , Polar

N2H2 - Molecule , (Polar in E- form and Non- polar in Z form)

C2H2 - Molecule , Non- Polar

N2 - Molecule , Polar

NCl3 - Molecule , Polar

SiF4 - Molecule , Non- Polar

NH3 - Molecule , Polar

F - Not- Molecule (atom)

H2 - Molecule and Non- Polar

Explanation:

Molecule : these are group of two or more atoms joined by strong force of attraction.

H2  is non- polar because it is homoatomic molecule.(made up of same element)

N2 is non- polar because it is homoatomic molecule.

How does scarcity impact society
g100num [7]

Answer:
