What is the purpose of a salt bridge?

Chemistry
1 answer:
k0ka [10]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A salt bridge refers to a device used to form an electrochemical cell by providing a means to support the free flow of ions between the oxidation and reduction half-cell components. A salt bridge facilitates corrosion because corrosive reactions typically occur in the presence of electrochemical cells.

The balanced equation for the reaction of ammonia and oxygen is the following. 4 NH3(g) + 5 O2(g) → 4 NO(g) + 6 H2O(g) The stand
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

ΔS° = 180.5 J/mol.K

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

4 NH₃(g) + 5 O₂(g) → 4 NO(g) + 6 H₂O(g)

The standard molar entropy of the reaction (ΔS°) can be calculated using the following expression.

ΔS° = ∑np × S°p - ∑nr × S°r

where,

ni are the moles of reactants and products

S°i are the standard molar entropies of reactants and products

ΔS° = 4 mol × S°(NO(g)) + 6 × S°(H₂O(g)) - 4 mol × S°(NH₃(g)) - 5 mol × S°(O₂(g))

ΔS° = 4 mol × 210.8 J/K.mol + 6 × 188.8 j/K.mol - 4 mol × 192.5 J/K.mol - 5 mol × 205.1 J/K.mol

ΔS° = 180.5 J/K

This is the change in the entropy per mole of reaction.

A galvanic cell consists of one half-cell that contains Ag(s) and Ag+(aq), and one half-cell that contains Cu(s) and Cu2+(aq). W
Agata [3.3K]

Answer : The 'Ag' is produced at the cathode electrode and 'Cu' is produced at anode electrode under standard conditions.

Explanation :

Galvanic cell : It is defined as a device which is used for the conversion of the chemical energy produces in a redox reaction into the electrical energy. It is also known as the voltaic cell or electrochemical cell.

In the galvanic cell, the oxidation occurs at an anode which is a negative electrode and the reduction occurs at the cathode which is a positive electrode.

We are taking the value of standard reduction potential form the standard table.

E^0_{[Ag^{+}/Ag]}=+0.80V

E^0_{[Cu^{2+}/Cu]}=+0.34V

In this cell, the component that has lower standard reduction potential gets oxidized and that is added to the anode electrode. The second forms the cathode electrode.

The balanced two-half reactions will be,

Oxidation half reaction (Anode) : Cu(s)\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq)+2e^-

Reduction half reaction (Cathode) : Ag^{+}(aq)+e^-\rightarrow Ag(s)

Thus the overall reaction will be,

Cu(s)+2Ag^{+}(aq)\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq)+2Ag(s)

From this we conclude that, 'Ag' is produced at the cathode electrode and 'Cu' is produced at anode electrode under standard conditions.

Hence, the 'Ag' is produced at the cathode electrode and 'Cu' is produced at anode electrode under standard conditions.

Explain why the place of aluminum in the reactivity wagon seems to be unsuitable.
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

Acids react with most metals.

When an acid reacts with a metal, the products are a salt and hydrogen.

This is the general word equation for the reaction: metal + acid → salt + hydrogen

What is the mass of oxygen in 3.34 g of potassium permanganate?
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

1.35 g

Explanation:

Data Given:

mass of Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄) = 3.34 g

Mass of Oxygen: ?

Solution:

First find the percentage composition of Oxygen in Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄)

So,

Molar Mass of KMnO₄ = 39 + 55 + 4(16)

Molar Mass of KMnO₄ = 158 g/mol

Calculate the mole percent composition of  Oxygen in Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄).

Mass contributed by Oxygen (O) = 4 (16) = 64 g

Since the percentage of compound is 100

So,

                        Percent of Oxygen (O) = 64 / 158 x 100

                        Percent of Oxygen (O) = 40.5 %

It means that for ever gram of Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄) there is 0.405 g of Oxygen (O) is present.

So,

for the 3.34 grams of Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄) the mass of Oxygen will be

                  mass of Oxygen (O) = 0.405 x 3.34 g

                  mass of Oxygen (O) = 1.35 g
