Answer:
Two tectonic plates had the same density and a collision of the plates pushed the advancing plate that contained fossilized marine organisms upward forming the Himalayan mountains and Mount Everest.
When they ask you for the solution they are usually asking for x. So solve for X.
X=-12 so you only have one solution. so the answer is B
Answer:
See explaination
Explanation:
1)
we know that
half cell with higher reduction potential is cathode
so
cathode :
N20 + 2H+ + 2e- ---> N2 + H20
anode :
Cr(s) ---> Cr+3 + 3e-
so
overall reaction is
3 N20 + 6H+ + 2 Cr ---> 3N2 + 3H20 + 2Cr+3
now
Eo cell = Eo cathode - Eo anode
so
EO cell = 1.77 + 0.74
Eo cell = 2.51 V
now
in this case
oxidizing agents are N20 and Cr+3
reducing agents are Cr and N2
higher the reduction potential , stronger the oxidizing agent
lower the reduction potential , stronger the reducing agent
so
oxidzing agents
N20 > Cr+3
reducing agents
Cr > N2
2)
cathode :
Au+ + e- --> Au
anode :
Cr ---> Cr+3 + 3e-
overall reaction
3Au+ + Cr ---> 3Au + Cr+3
Eo cell = 1.69 + 0.74
Eo cell = 2.43
now
oxidizing agents :
Au+ > Cr+3
reducing agents :
Cr > Au
3)
cathode :
N20 + 2H+ + 2e- ---> N2 + H20
andoe :
Au ---> Au+ + e-
overall
2 Au + N20 + 2H+ --> 2 Au+ + N2 + H20
Eo cell = 1.77 - 1.69
Eo cell = 0.08
oxidizing agents
N20 > Au+
reducing agents
Au > N2
