IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

The over all reaction :

$2Fe^{3+}(aq)+Pb(s)\rightarrow 2Fe^{2+}(s)+Pb^{2+}(aq)$

The standard cell potential of the reaction is 0,.897 Volts.

Explanation:

Reduction at cathode :

$Fe^{3+}(aq)+e^-\rightarrow Fe^{2+}(s)$ ..[1]

$E^o_{Fe^{3+}/Fe^{2+}}=0.771 V$

Reduction potential of $Fe^{3+}$ to $Fe^{2+}=0.771 V$

Oxidation at anode:

$Pb(s)\rightarrow Pb^{2+}(aq)+2e^-$ .[2]

$E^o_{Pb^{2+}/Pb}=-0.126 V$

Reduction potential of $Pb^{3+}$ to $Pb=-0.126 V$

To calculate the $E^o_{cell}$ of the reaction, we use the equation:

$E^o_{cell}=E^o_{red,cathode}-E^o_{red,anode}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$E^o_{cell}=E^o_{Fe^{3+}/Fe^{2+}}-E^o_{Pb^{2+}/Pb}$

$=0.771 V-(-0.126 )=0.897 V$

The over all reaction : 2 × [1] + [2]

$2Fe^{3+}(aq)+Pb(s)\rightarrow 2Fe^{2+}(s)+Pb^{2+}(aq)$

The standard cell potential of the reaction is 0,.897 Volts.

Fuel is injected at which state diesel cycle

frez [133]

The Diesel cycle is a combustion process of a reciprocating internal combustion in the cylinders of the engine. In it, fuel is ignited by heat generated during the compression of air in the combustion chamber, into which fuel is then injected and the exhaust from the combustion is pushed out the exhaust pipe or brought out by a turbo

The Lewis dot notation for two atoms is shown.

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Mg donates two electrons to O

Explanation:

Lewis dot notation uses dots and crosses to represent valence electrons on atoms.

Magnesium is a metal and would donate or lose electrons during bonding.

Oxygen is a non metal and would gain electrons during bonding.

The correct option is;

Mg donates two electrons to O

Compare and contrast reflecting and refracting telescopes. *

Alinara [238K]

A refracting telescope uses convex lenses to gather a large amount of light and focus it onto a small area while a reflecting telescope the mirror instead of an objective lens they are also similar because like the lenses in a refracting telescope the mirror in a reflecting telescope focuses a large amount of light onto a small area.
