Answer:

Explanation:

Electrochemical cell is composed of 2 half cells, one where reduction reaction takes place which is the cathode and the other is where oxidation reaction takes place.

Reduction reaction

Cu2+(aq) + 2e- ---> Cu(s)

E° = 0.34 V

Oxidation reaction

2Ag(s) --> 2Ag+(aq) + 2e-

E° = -0.80 V

Combining both equations,

2Ag(s) + Cu2+ (aq) ⟶ 2Ag+ (aq) + Cu(s)

Standard eletrode potential of the cell, E°cell = E°cath - E°anode

= 0.34 - (-0.80)

= +1.14 V.

If the value of E°cell is positive, then the reaction is spontaneous, and it will occur as written under standard conditions; it will, however, not proceed spontaneously in the opposite direction.

Answer:

2Ag(s) + Cu^2+(aq) ----------> 2Ag^+(aq) + Cu(s)

Explanation:

Ag(s)/Ag^+ (aq) is the anode as shown while Cu^2+(aq)/Cu^2(s) is the cathode.

E°cell= E°cathode -E°anode= 0.34 -0.80= -0.5V

The cell is not spontaneous as written because E°cell is negative. This implies that the electrodes of the cell must be interchanged to make the cell spontaneous.

What are atoms?
user100 [1]

Answer:

The smallest particle of a chemical element can be defined as an atom.

Explanation:

The number of protons in one atom of an element determines the atom's identity, and the number of electrons determines its electrical charge.

a single electron or one of two or more electrons in the outer shell of an atom that is responsible for the chemical properties of the atom is known as valence electrons.

An atom's reactivity is its tendency to lose or gain electrons. ... This is because they have one outer electron and losing it gives them the stability of a outer electron shell as the next level... The reactivities of elements can be predicted by periodic trends.

For the following example, list the given and unknown information (including gratis or moles)
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

9.6 moles O2

Explanation:

I'll assume it is 345 grams, not gratis, of water.  Hydrogen's molar mass is 1.01, not 101.

The molar mass of water is 18.0 grams/mole.

Therefore:  (345g)/(18.0 g/mole) = 19.17 or 19.2 moles water (3 sig figs).

The balanced equation states that:  2H20 ⇒ 2H2 +02

It promises that we'll get 1 mole of oxygen for every 2 moles of H2O, a molar ratio of 1/2.

get (1 mole O2/2 moles H2O)*(19.2 moles H2O) or 9.6 moles O2

Draw the curved arrow mechanism for the reaction between (2S,3S)-3,5-dimethylhexan-2-ol and PCl3. Note the specific instructions
Vikki [24]

Answer:

(2R,3S)-2-chloro-3,5-dimethylhexane

Explanation:

As first step we have the <u>attack of the OH group</u> to the P atom in the PCl3 and one of the Cl atoms would leave. Then we will have a <u>rearrangement</u> to produce a <u>double bond </u>with the oyxgen on the OH. Finally the Cl produced will a<u>ttack the carbon</u> in a <u>Sn2 substitution reaction</u> to produce the halide with an <u>opposite configuration</u>.
