Use the Nernst equation to calculate the concentration of the unknown solution. Base this on your experimental voltage of 1.074

V for the galvanic cell with this unknown combined with your copper half-cell. Use the unrounded [Cu2+] value of .050179 M and the unrounded value of the constants as listed in the file link near the top of this assignment to avoid round-off error.

Answer:

0.3793 M

Explanation:

The unknown metal is zinc. So the equation of the reaction is;

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

From Nernst equation;

E = E° - 0.0592/n log Q

[Cu2+] = 0.050179 M

n = 2

[Zn^2+] = ?

E = 1.074 V

E° = 0.34 - (-0.76) = 1.1 V

Substituting values;

1.074  = 1.1 - 0.0592/2 log [Zn^2+]/0.050179

1.074 - 1.1 = - 0.0592/2 log [Zn^2+]/0.050179

-0.026 = -0.0296  log [Zn^2+]/0.050179

-0.026/-0.0296 = log [Zn^2+]/0.050179

0.8784 =log [Zn^2+]/0.050179

Antilog(0.8784) = [Zn^2+]/0.050179

7.558 =  [Zn^2+]/0.050179

[Zn^2+] = 7.558 * 0.050179

[Zn^2+] = 0.3793 M

Silicon is an element that is found directly underneath carbon in the periodic table and thus has similar properties to carbon,
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

            Four electrons are present in the valence shell of Silicon.

Explanation:

                   Valence shell electrons are those electrons which are present in the outermost shell of an atom. These valence shell electrons are responsible for in the formation of bonds with other atoms.

                   Silicon having atomic number 14 has fourteen electrons in its neutral state and has the electronic configuration as follow;

                                              1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p²

In given configuration the valence shell (outermost shell) is 3 and the number of electrons present in it are four i.e. 3s² and 3p² (2 + 2 = 4) respectively.

In the reaction, A → Products, the rate constant is 3.6 × 10−4 s−1. If the initial concentration of A is 0.548 M, what will be t
Arada [10]

Answer:

        \large\boxed{\large\boxed{0.529M}}

Explanation:

Since the <em>rate constant</em> has units of <em>s⁻¹</em>, you can tell that the order of the reaction is 1.

Hence, the rate law is:

       r=d[A]/dt=-k[A]

Solving that differential equation yields to the well known equation for the rates of a first order chemical reaction:

      [A]=[A]_0e^{-kt}

You know [A]₀, k, and t, thus you can calculate [A].

       [A]=0.548M\times e^{-3.6\cdot 10^{-4}/s\times99.2s}

       [A]=0.529M
