Why is cathode positive in leclanche cell??

Physics
1 answer:
laila [671]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Because the zinc is reluctant

Explanation:

A leclanche cell contains a conducting solution (electrolyte) of ammonium chloride, a cathode (positive terminal) of carbon, a depolarizer of manganese dioxide (oxidizer), and an anode (negative terminal) of zinc (reductant).

As the Zn2+ ions move away from the anode, leaving their electrons on its surface,

Zn → Zn2+ + 2e−

the anode becomes more negatively charged than the cathode. When the cell is connected to an external electrical circuit, the excess electrons on the zinc anode flow through the circuit to the carbon rod, the movement of electrons forming an electric current.

kozerog [31]

Answer:

F=133N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Length l=3.0m

Mass m=24kg

Distance from Tip d=35cm

Generally, the equation for Torque Balance is mathematically given by

mg(l/2)=F(l-d)

2*9.81(3/2)=F(3-35*10^-2)

Therefore

F=133N

The net force acting on the ball below is ___ N
yKpoI14uk [10]

The net force applied to the object equals the mass of the object multiplied by the amount of its acceleration." The net force acting on the soccer ball is equal to the mass of the soccer ball multiplied by its change in velocity each second (its acceleration).

How much energy (in kilojoules) is required to convert 200 mL of diethyl ether at its boiling point from liquid to vapor if its
LiRa [457]

Answer:

55.96kJ

Explanation:

Energy = mass of diethyl ether × enthalpy of vaporization of diethyl ether

Volume (v) = 200mL, density (d) = 0.7138g/mL

Mass = d × v = 0.7138 × 200 = 142.76g

Enthalpy of vaporization of diethyl ether = 29kJ/mol

MW of diethyl ether (C2H5)2O = 74g/mol

Enthalpy in kJ/g = 29kJ/mol ÷ 74g/mol = 0.392kJ/g

Energy = 142.76g × 0.392kJ/g = 55.96kJ

STatiana [176]

Answer:

a = 0.55 m / s²

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration is given by the relation

         a = v² / r

angular and linear velocities are related

         v = w r

we substitute

          a = w² r

In the exercise they indicate the angular velocity w = 1 rev/min, let's reduce to the SI system

          w = 1 rev / min (2pi rad / 1rev) (1min / 60s) = 0.105 rad/ s

let's calculate

          a = 0.105² 50.0

          a = 0.55 m / s²
