EXPERIMENT 1: Identify the oxidation and reduction half-reactions that occur in

Chemistry
1 answer:
Hoochie [10]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Cathode: Mn → Mn²⁺  +  2e⁻    (Oxidation)

Anode: Zn²⁺  +  2e⁻  →  Zn   (Reduction)

Mn | Mn²⁺ ||  Zn²⁺  | Zn

Explanation:

To identify the half reaction we need to see the oxidation states.

Mn(s) → Ground state → Oxidation state = 0

Mn(NO₃)₂ → Mn²⁺  → The oxidation state has increased.

This is the oxidation reaction. It has released two electrons:

Mn → Mn²⁺  +  2e⁻

Zn(NO₃)₂ →  Zn²⁺

Zn → Ground state → The oxidation state was decreased.

This is the reduction reaction. It has gained two electrons:

Zn²⁺  +  2e⁻  →  Zn

Cathode: Mn → Mn²⁺  +  2e⁻

Anode: Zn²⁺  +  2e⁻  →  Zn

Mn | Mn²⁺ ||  Zn²⁺  | Zn

Am I the bad guy for killing my fish, let me explain?

Explanation:

The fish said a bad word that was incredibly inappropriate, so then I told him to never say that again. He responds with, "No, I CAN SAY WHATEVER I WANT." After that I told him to not yell at me and then I killed him, remember he's a fish (GoldFISH).

What is the hydrogen concentration of a solution with a pH of 2.1?
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

8×10^(-3) mol/L

Explanation:

The formula for finding the hydrogen ion concentration is...

[H⁺] = 10^-ph

[H⁺] = 10^(-2.1)

[H⁺] = 0.00794...mol/L = 8×10^(-3) mol/L

The answer is to 1 significant digit because the pH has one decimal place.

What is the overall energy transformation in a coal-fired power plant?.
polet [3.4K]

Answer: When coal is burned, chemical potential energy is transformed into thermal energy, light energy, and sound energy. Only the thermal energy is used for electricity production. Light and sound energy dissipate into the environment, immediately reducing efficiency.

Hope this helps.
