Answer:

Explanation:

Radius of the charged sphere (R)=12cm

Charge (q)=6∗10^−6C

Electric field intensity (E)=?

i) On the surface

$E=\frac{1}{4\pix_{e0} } \frac{q}{R^2} =9*10^{9} *\frac{6*10^{-6} }{0.12^-2} =3.75*10^6 N/C$

ii) Inside the sphere,

E=0; Because charge enclosed by Gaussian surface is zero.

iii) Outside the sphere at distance 15cm

i.e. r=12+15=27cm=0.27m

$E=\frac{1}{4\pi _{e} }_{0} \frac{q}{r^{2} } =9*10^9*\frac{6 \a* *10^6}{(0.27)^2} =7.41*10^5 N/C$

Answer:

Approximately $\rm 90\; kJ$ .

Explanation:

Cathode is where reduction takes place and anode is where oxidation takes place. The potential of a electrochemical reaction ( $E^{\circ}(\text{cell})$ ) is equal to

$E^{\circ}(\text{cell}) = E^{\circ}(\text{cathode}) - E^{\circ}(\text{anode})$ .

There are two half-reactions in this question. $\rm Cu^{2+} + 2\,e^{-} \rightleftharpoons Cu$ and $\rm Pb^{2+} + 2\,e^{-} \rightleftharpoons Pb$ . Either could be the cathode (while the other acts as the anode.) However, for the reaction to be spontaneous, the value of $E^{\circ}(\text{cell})$ should be positive.

In this case, $E^{\circ}(\text{cell})$ is positive only if $\rm Cu^{2+} + 2\,e^{-} \rightleftharpoons Cu$ is the reaction takes place at the cathode. The net reaction would be

$\rm Cu^{2+} + Pb \to Cu + Pb^{2+}$ .

Its cell potential would be equal to $0.339 - (-0.130) = \rm 0.469\; V$ .

The maximum amount of electrical energy possible (under standard conditions) is equal to the free energy of this reaction:

$\Delta G^{\circ} = n \cdot F \cdot E^{\circ} (\text{cell})$ ,

where

$n$ is the number moles of electrons transferred for each mole of the reaction. In this case the value of $n$ is $2$ as in the half-reactions.
$F$ is Faraday's Constant (approximately $96485.33212\; \rm C \cdot mol^{-1}$ .)

$\begin{aligned}\Delta G^{\circ} &= n \cdot F \cdot E^{\circ} (\text{cell})\cr &= 2\times 96485.33212 \times (0.339 - (-0.130)) \cr &\approx 9.0 \times 10^{4} \; \rm J \cr &= 90\; \rm kJ\end{aligned}$ .
