The equation Eºcell = 0.0592/n logK must be used to find n and also Eºcell
2 Al(s) + 3 Mg2+(aq) → 2 Al3+(aq) + 3 Mg(s) Al3+ +3e- --> Al Eº = -1.66 V Mg2+ +2e- -->Mg Eº = -2.37V
To balance the equation, 6 moles of electrons must be transferred (2 Al and 3 Mg). This will be the value of n in the equation.
To find Eºcell, you need the reduction potentials which should be given in a table, and given above. Eºcell = -1.66 - (-2.37) = 0.71 V log K = Eºcell x n/0.0592 = 0.71 x 6/0.0592 log K = 71.95 K = 10^71.95 K = 1.1x10^72
Answer: Gunpowder
Explanation:
Gunpowder is made by mixing potassium nitrate with two fuels (atoms that can combine with oxygen atoms and release energy), carbon (charcoal) and sulfur. The oxygen atoms leave the nitrates and move onto the carbon and sulfur atoms, releasing a buttload of energy.
In my opinion yes, as of now, almost anyone could get there hands on lets say an explosive. Have you heard of dynamite fishing? It is illegal, but it is still done once people have access to dynamite, then what ends up happening not only do marine wildlife get killed but it pollutes the water and lessens the chance of the natural cycle of life. Also there are several other factors, firstly, what will you do with an explosive once you get your hands on it? Perhaps you could just use an explosive for fun/personal entertainment...that isn't right and it could harm people. So, to conclude the harder it is for people to access explosives or even acclerants the better...and to add this can be possible by making people get like some sort of licence to use them, and let them be trained in certain conditions so that there is no regrets once they have access to them. I know my idea sounds far fetched but its a thought!
that's the answer I think
