Consider the following reaction at 298.15 K: Co(s)+Fe2+(aq,1.47 M)⟶Co2+(aq,0.33 M)+Fe(s) If the standard reduction potential for

cobalt(II) is −0.28 V and the standard reduction potential for iron(II) is −0.447 V, what is the cell potential in volts for this cell? Report your answer with two significant figures.

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.186 V

Explanation:

The two hemirreactions are:

Reduction: Fe²⁺ + 2 e- → Fe(s)  

Oxidation : Co(s)  → Co²⁺ + 2 e-

Thus, we calculate the standard cell potential (Eº) from the difference between the reduction potentials of cobalt and iron, respectively,  as follows:

Eº = Eº(Fe²⁺/Fe(s)) - Eº(Co²⁺/Co(s)) = -0.28 V - (-0.447 V) = 0.167 V

Then, we use the Nernst equation to calculate the cell potential (E) at 298.15 K:

E= Eº - (0.0592 V/n) x log Q

Where:

n: number of electrons that are transferred in the reaction. In this case, n= 2.

Q: ratio between the concentrations of products over reactants, calculated as follows:

Q = \frac{ [Co^{2+} ]}{[Fe^{2+} ]} = \frac{0.33 M}{1.47 M} = 0.2244

Finally, we introduce Eº= 0.167 V, n= 2, Q=0.2244, to obtain E:

E= 0.167 V - (0.0592 V/2) x log (0.2244) = 0.186 V

B. Argon's vibrational energy is not excited by infrared radiation.

Explanation:

The property of carbon dioxide to get excited by infrared electromagnetic radiation is what qualifies it as a greenhouse gas. When infrared from the earth's surface is reflecting back to space, some of the radiation is absorbed and remitted by the carbon-dioxide molecules in the atmosphere. This causes a phenomenon called greenhouse effect that causes the atmosphere to be relatively warmer. The more the carbon dioxide molecules the more the greenhouse effect.

These little bunnies (A, B, and C) were born in the same litter to the same parents, but they have different traits for the feat
marta [7]

Answer:

Due to random assortment and incomplete dominance of alleles.

Explanation:

The bunnies end up with ear thicknesses that are different from one another due to random assortment of alleles during gamete formation according to Mendel.

In addition to random assortment, the allele for thick ear also displayed what is known as incomplete dominance over the allele for thin ear to arrive at an average ear thickness.

Which equation represents the combined gas law?
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

P1V1/T1= P2V2/T2

Explanation:

Combined gas law involves Boyle's law and Charles law altogether with the formula of Boyle's law as P1V1=P2V2

formula for charles law as V1/T1=V2/T2

so when combined form P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2
