Answer:

3.1 * 10^-14

Explanation:

Note that E°cell = 0.0592/n log K

We can obtain E°cell from the standard reduction potentials of cadmium and hydrogen

Anode reaction

H2(g) ----> 2H+ + 2e

Cathode reaction

Cd^2+(aq) + 2e -----> Cd(s)

E°cell = E°cathode - E°anode

E°cathode = –0.40 V

E°anode = 0 V

E°cell =  –0.40 V - 0 V

E°cell = –0.40 V

E°cell = 0.0592/n log K

Where n=2 electrons transferred

–0.40 = 0.0592/2 log K

–0.40 = 0.0296 log K

log K = –0.40/0.0296

log K = -13.5135

K = Antilog ( -13.5135)

K = 3.1 * 10^-14

Calculate the amount of copper (in moles) in a 45.2 g pure copper sheet
tangare [24]

Answer:

0.712 mol

Explanation:

The easiest way to do this is to use a proportion.

1 mol of copper = 63.5 grams (check this using your periodic table).

x mol of copper = 45.2 grams

1/x = 63.5 / 45.2              Cross multiply

63.5 x = 1 * 45.2              Divide by 63.5

x = 45.2/63.5

x = 0.712 mol                   Answer to 3 sig digs
