Answer:
Option (A) the solid X is ground to a fine powder.
Explanation:
X(s) + 2B(aq) → X+(aq) + B2(g)
In the reaction above, the rate of the reaction will be highest, when X being a solid is ground to fine powder.
Grounding X to fine powder simply means increasing the surface area of X.
An increase in surface area of reactants will definitely increase the rate of reaction because the particles of the solid will collide with the right orientation and hence speed up the reaction rate.
Explanation:
Balanced chemical reaction equation will be as follows.
In human body, the neutral iron changes into 
(aq) cation. There will be an oxidation-half reaction and a reduction-half reaction. Equations for this reaction are as follows.
Oxidation: 2Fe^{2+}(aq) \rightleftharpoons 2Fe^{3+}(aq) + 2e^{-}[/tex] .... (1)
Reduction: 
...... (2)
On adding both equation (1) and (2), the overall reaction equation will be as follows.
Therefore, neutral iron is a part of Heme - b group of Hemoglobin and in an aqueous solution it dissolutes as a part of Heme group. Hence, then it becomes an cation.
Answer:
Zn =⇒ Zn+2(0.10) + 2e- (anode)
Zn+2(?M) + 2e- === Zn(s) (cathode)
Zn + Zn+2(?M) ===⇒ Zn+2(0.10) + Zn
E = E^o -0.0592 log Q; in this case E^o is zero.
E = - 0.0592 /n logQ where n is the number of electrons transferred, in this
case n = 2
23 mV x 1 volt/1000mv = 0.023 Volts
0.023 = -0.0592 / 2 log(0.10) / [Zn+2]
0.023 = -0.0296 { log 0.10 – log [Zn+2] }
0.023 = -0.0296{ -1 - log[Zn+2] }
0.023 = +0.0296 + 0.0296log[Zn+2]
-0.0066 = 0.0296log[Zn+2]
-0.22= log[Zn+2]
[Zn+2] = 10^-0.22 = 0.603 Molar
For it to be the same element it must contain the same number of protons
