Answer:

4.Ti

Explanation:

Because it is a group VIII element or an inert gas. or noble gas (Inert gas)

- It has 8 full valence electrons, making it a non-reactive gas.

Answer:

Noble gases are nonreactive, nonmetallic elements in group 18 of the periodic table. Noble gases are the least reactive of all elements. That's because they have eight valence electrons, which fill their outer energy level.

Based on the sign of E cell, classify these reactions as spontaneous or non spontaneous as written.? assume standard conditions.

sammy [17]

A electrochemical reaction is said to be spontaneous, if $E^{0} cell is positive.$

Answer 1:
Consider reaction: Ni^2+ (aq) + S^2- (aq) ----> + Ni (s) + S (s)

The cell representation of above reaction is given by;
 $S^{2-}/S // Ni^{2+}/Ni$

Hence, $E^{0}cell = E^{0} Ni^{2+/Ni} - E^{0} S/S^{2-}$
we know that, ${E^{0} Ni^{2+}/Ni = -0.25 v$
and ${E^{0} S/ S^{2-} = -0.47 v$

Therefore, $E^{0} cell$ = - 0.25 - (-0.47) = 0.22 v

Since, $E^{0} cell$ is positive, hence cell reaction is spontaneous

Answer 2:
Consider reaction: Pb^2+ (aq) +H2 (g) ----> Pb (s) +2H^+ (aq)

The cell representation of above reaction is given by;
 $H_{2} / H^{+} // Pb^{2+} /Pb$

Hence, $E^{0}cell = E^{0} Pb/Pb^{2+} - E^{0} H_{2}/H^{+}$
we know that, ${E^{0} Pb^{2+}/Pb = -0.126 v$
and ${E^{0} H_{2}/ H^{+} = -0 v$

Therefore, $E^{0} cell$ = - 0.126 - 0 = -0.126 v

Since, $E^{0} cell$ is negative, hence cell reaction is non-spontaneous.

Answer 3:
Consider reaction: 2Ag^+ (aq) + Cr(s) ---> 2 Ag (s) +Cr^2+ (aq)

The cell representation of above reaction is given by;
 $Cr/Cr^{2+} // Ag^{+}/Ag$

Hence, $E^{0}cell = E^{0} Ag^{+}/Ag - E^{0} Cr/Cr^{2+}$
we know that, ${E^{0} Ag^{+}/Ag = -0.22 v$
and ${E^{0} Cr/ Cr^{2+} = -0.913 v$

Therefore, $E^{0} cell$ = - 0.22 - (-0.913) = 0.693 v

Since, $E^{0} cell$ is positive, hence cell reaction is spontaneous

Consider the equation:

Dmitry [639]

Answer:1. $Rate=k[CHCl_3]^1[Cl_2]^\frac{1}{2}$

2. The rate constant (k) for the reaction is $3.50M^\frac{-1}{2}s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

$rate=k[CHCl_3]^x[Cl_2]^y$
