Which statement about oxidation and reduction in a voltaic cell is true?

Oxidation is the loss of electrons and corresponds to an increase in oxidation state. A reduction is the gain of electrons and corresponds to a decrease in oxidation state. Balancing redox reactions can be more complicated than balancing other types of reactions because both the mass and charge must be balanced. Redox reactions occurring in aqueous solutions can be balanced by using a special procedure called the half-reaction method of balancing. In this procedure, the overall equation is broken down into two half-reactions: one for oxidation and the other for reduction. The half-reactions are balanced individually and then added together so that the number of electrons generated in the oxidation half-reaction is the same as the number of electrons consumed in the reduction half-reaction.

Calculate AH°rxn from AH°7 values (use table in textbook appendix) a) Cl2 (g) + 2 Na (s) -› 2 NaCl (s) EITHER -411.1kJ/mol b) 2

MrMuchimi

To find AH°rxn, we use the following equation:

What we're going to do is to sum the enthalpy of the products and then substract with the enthalpy of the reactives:

As you can see, we need to multiply by the coefficients of the reaction.

Now, just replace the values of the table:

So the answer is -822.2kJ/mol.

For b:

Now, just replace the values of the table:

The answer for b is -1036kJ/mol.

1. If you have a sample of gas at a pressure of 16 atm, what will the pressure be if the volume is halved?

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

1. The pressure will be 32 atm, twice the initial pressure.

2. The pressure will be 1.83 atm, one third of the initial pressure.

Explanation:

Boyle's law is one of the gas laws that relates the volume and pressure of a certain quantity of gas kept at a constant temperature.

This law says that "The volume occupied by a given gaseous mass at constant temperature is inversely proportional to pressure." This means that if the pressure increases, the volume decreases, while if the pressure decreases, the volume increases.

Boyle's law is expressed mathematically as:

Pressure * Volume = constant

or P * V = k

Ahora es posible suponer que tienes un cierto volumen de gas V1 que se encuentra a una presión P1 al comienzo del experimento. Si varias el volumen de gas hasta un nuevo valor V2, entonces la presión cambiará a P2, y se cumplirá:

P1*V1=P2*V2

1. In this case:
