To identify minerals
Each material chemical makeup are a variety of chemical compounds which has each own category. They have different functional groups which helps people identify which material they look for. For instance, hydroxyl group has chemical makeup of alcohol
Answer:
- <u><em>No, I would not consider a metal to be a plasma because plasma is just another state of matter, and the copper wire is in solid state.</em></u>
Explanation:
Metal is not a state of matter. Metals can be solid or liquid (molten) depending on their melting point and the temperature at which they are.
Plasma is a state of matter, similar to gas, but it is reached only at very high temperatures like in the Sun. The particles in plasma state are not neutral atoms or molecules but negatively charged ions and electrons.
The copper wire is yet a solid, thus it cannot be considered a plasma.
Metals can be in plasma state only if the temperature is too high, like the temperatures in the stars. In fact, the metals in the Sun and other hotter stars are in plasma state.
<u>Question:</u>
For the cell constructed from the hydrogen electrode and metal-insoluble salt electrode, B) calculate the mean activity coefficient for 0.124 b HCl solution if E=0.342 V at 298 K
<u>Answer:</u>
The mean activity coefficient for HCl solution is 0.78.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Activity coefficient is defined as the ratio of any chemical activity of any substance with its molar concentration. So in an electrochemical cell, we can write activity coefficient as γ. The equation for determining the mean activity coefficient is

As we know that
= 0.22 V and E = 0.342 V, the equation will become








So, the mean activity coefficient is 0.78.
