The cell potential of a redox reaction occurring in an electrochemical cell under any set of temperature and concentration condi

avanturin [10]

Answer : The actual cell potential of the cell is 0.47 V

Explanation:

Reaction quotient (Q) : It is defined as the measurement of the relative amounts of products and reactants present during a reaction at a particular time.

The given redox reaction is :

$Ni^{2+}(aq)+Zn(s)\rightarrow Ni(s)+Zn^{2+}(aq)$

The balanced two-half reactions will be,

Oxidation half reaction : $Zn\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+2e^-$

Reduction half reaction : $Ni^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Ni$

The expression for reaction quotient will be :

$Q=\frac{[Zn^{2+}]}{[Ni^{2+}]}$

In this expression, only gaseous or aqueous states are includes and pure liquid or solid states are omitted.

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get

$Q=\frac{(0.0141)}{(0.00104)}=13.6$

The value of the reaction quotient, Q, for the cell is, 13.6

Now we have to calculate the actual cell potential of the cell.

Using Nernst equation :

$E_{cell}=E^o_{cell}-\frac{RT}{nF}\ln Q$

where,

F = Faraday constant = 96500 C

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

T = room temperature = 316 K

n = number of electrons in oxidation-reduction reaction = 2 mole

$E^o_{cell}$ = standard electrode potential of the cell = 0.51 V

$E_{cell}$ = actual cell potential of the cell = ?

Q = reaction quotient = 13.6

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

$E_{cell}=0.51-\frac{(8.314)\times (316)}{2\times 96500}\ln (13.6)$

$E_{cell}=0.47V$

Therefore, the actual cell potential of the cell is 0.47 V

7. Interpret Data A company plans to make an electronic device. They need to use an element that has chemical behavior similar t

Goryan [66]

Germanium (Ge) is an element that has chemical behavior similar to that of silicon (Si) and lead (Pb). As it has an atomic mass greater than that of sulfur (S), but less than that of cadmium (Cd).

<h3>Why does the element of the same group have similar chemical behavior?</h3>

The chemical behavior of elements depends on the number of valence electrons in their outermost shell. Elements placed in the same group have the same number of valence electrons. Therefore, elements placed in the same group of the periodic table have similar chemical properties.

The elements having a similar outer electronic configuration in their atoms are arranged in the same group of the periodic table. These valence electrons are responsible chemical properties and reactivities of the elements.

Therefore, silicon and lead can be replaced by any element belonging to the same group in which Si and Pb are present. So we have germanium and tin. But germanium is the element that has an atomic mass greater than sulfur (S), but less than cadmium (Cd).
