Answer: from the Zn anode to the Cu cathode
Justification:
1) The reaction given is: Zn(s) + Cu₂⁺ (aq) -> Zn²⁺ (aq) +Cu(s)
2) From that, you can see the Zn(s) is losing electrons, since it is being oxidized (from 0 to 2⁺), while Cu²⁺, is gaining electrons, since it is being reduced (from 2⁺ to 0).
3) Then, you can already tell that electrons go from Zn to Cu.
4) The plate where oxidation occurs is called anode, and the plate where reduction occus is called cathode.
So you get that the electrons flow from the anode (Zn) to the cathode (Cu).
Always oxidation occurs at the anode, and reduction occurs at the cathode.
Answer:
Democritus
Explanation:
He spoke about matter was made of tiny particles which moved in empty space
In the U.S.A, it is the Mississippi River Basin. But then there is the Gulf of Mexico.
The balanced equation:
Mg+2HCl⇒ MgCl₂+H₂
For this item, we need to assume that air behaves like that of an ideal gas. Ideal gases follow the ideal gas law which can be written as follow,
PV = nRT
where P is the pressure,
V is the volume,
n is the number of mols,
R is the universal gas constant, and
T is temperature
In this item, we are to determine first the number of moles, n. We derive the equation,
n = PV /RT
Substitute the given values,
n = (1 atm)(5 x 10³ L) / (0.0821 L.atm/mol.K)(0 + 273.15)
n = 223.08 mols
From the given molar mass, we calculate for the mass of air.
m = (223.08 mols)(28.98 g/mol) = 6464.9 g
<em>ANSWER: 6464.9 g</em>
