Use the following half-reactions to write three spontaneous reactions, calculate E°cell for each reaction, and rank the oxidizin

g and reducing agents for each reaction. (Type your answer using the format [NH4]+ for NH4+, [Mg]2+ for Mg2+, and CO2 for CO2. Don't specify physical states. Use the lowest possible coefficients.) (1) Au+(aq) + e- Au(s) E° = 1.69 V (2) N2O(g) + 2 H+(aq) + 2 e- N2(g) + H2O(l) E° = 1.77 V (3) Cr3+(aq) + 3 e- Cr(s) E° = -0.74 V

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

1)

we know that

half cell with higher reduction potential is cathode

so

cathode :

N20 + 2H+ + 2e- ---> N2 + H20

anode :

Cr(s) ---> Cr+3 + 3e-

so

overall reaction is

3 N20 + 6H+ + 2 Cr ---> 3N2 + 3H20 + 2Cr+3

now

Eo cell = Eo cathode - Eo anode

so

EO cell = 1.77 + 0.74

Eo cell = 2.51 V

now

in this case

oxidizing agents are N20 and Cr+3

reducing agents are Cr and N2

higher the reduction potential , stronger the oxidizing agent

lower the reduction potential , stronger the reducing agent

so

oxidzing agents

N20 > Cr+3

reducing agents

Cr > N2

2)

cathode :

Au+ + e- --> Au

anode :

Cr ---> Cr+3 + 3e-

overall reaction

3Au+ + Cr ---> 3Au + Cr+3

Eo cell = 1.69 + 0.74

Eo cell = 2.43

now

oxidizing agents :

Au+ > Cr+3

reducing agents :

Cr > Au

3)

cathode :

N20 + 2H+ + 2e- ---> N2 + H20

andoe :

Au ---> Au+ + e-

overall

2 Au + N20 + 2H+ --> 2 Au+ + N2 + H20

Eo cell = 1.77 - 1.69

Eo cell = 0.08

oxidizing agents

N20 > Au+

reducing agents

Au > N2

What happens when the pressure of a gas is decreased?
Serggg [28]

Answer:

The combined gas law states that the pressure of a gas is inversely related to the volume and directly related to the temperature. If temperature is held constant, the equation is reduced to Boyle's law. Therefore, if you decrease the pressure of a fixed amount of gas, its volume will increase.

A buret is filled with 0.1517 M A 25.0 mL portion of an unknown acid and two drops of indicator are added to an Erlenmeyer flask
erik [133]

Answer:

Molarity of Unknown Acid = 0.1332 M

Explanation:

Data for solving problem:

Molarity of base in buret (M₁)= 0.1517 M

volume of the acid in Erlenmeyer flask (V₂)= 25.0 mL

Volume of the base in the buret (V₁) = final volume of buret - initial volume in buret

final volume of buret = 22.5 mL

initial volume in buret = 0.55 mL

So

Volume of the base in the buret (V₁) = 22.5 mL -0.55 mL = 21.95 mL

Volume of the base in the buret (V₁)  = 21.95 mL

Molarity of Unknown acid in the Erlenmeyer flask (M₂) = To be find

Explanation:

It is acid base titration and  formula for this titration is as follows:

Molarity of base x Volume of base = Molarity of acid x volume of acid

it can be written as

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂ -------------------- equation (1)

we have to find M₂

so by rearrangment the equation (1)

M₁V₁ / V₂ = M₂ ------------------ equation (2)

put the values in equation in equation (2)

M₂ = 0.1517 M x 21.95 mL / 25.0 mL

M₂ = 3.3298 /25.0

M₂ = 0.1332 M

so the Molarity of Unknown acid is <u>0.1332 M</u>
