Morgarella [4.7K]2 years ago
5 0

This problem is asking for the percent by mass of hydrogen in hydrofluoric acid. At the end, the answer turns out to be D. 5%​ as shown below:

<h3>Percent compositions:</h3>

In chemistry, percent compositions are used for us to know the relative amount of a specific element in a compound. In order to do so for hydrogen, we use the following formula, which can also be applied to any other element in a given compound:

\% H=\frac{m_H*1}{M_{HF}}*100\%

Where m_H stands for the atomic mass of hydrogen and M_{HF} for the molar mass of hydrofluoric acid. In such a way, we plug in the atomic masses of hydrogen (1.01 g/mol) and fluorine (19.0 g/mol) to obtain:

\% H=\frac{1.01g/mol*1}{1.01g/mol+19.0g/mol}*100\%\\\\\% H=5\%

Which is NOT correct for when the silver and vanadium half-cells are connected via a salt bridge and a potentiometer
lidiya [134]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is

Which is NOT correct for when the silver and vanadium half-cells are connected via a salt bridge and a potentiometer? Ag^+ + 1 e^- rightarrow Ag Edegree = 0.7993 V V^2+ + 2e^- right arrow V E degree =-1.125 V Ag+ is reduced V is oxidized 1.924 V V2^+ is reduced Ag is oxidized I and II III, IV, and V I, II, and III III only IV and V

Answer:

only IV and V

Explanation:

If we look at the values of reduction potential for the two species, we will discover that vanadium has a negative reduction potential indicating its tendency towards oxidation.

On the other hand, solve has a positive reduction potential indicating a tendency towards reduction.

This implies that vanadium must be oxidized and silver reduced and not the not her way ground? Hence the answer above.
