Calculate the standard cell potential given the following standard reduction potentials: Al3++3e−→Al;E∘=−1.66 V Cu2++2e−→Cu;E∘=0

.340 V

1 answer:
Maru [420]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

To calculate the cell potential we use the relation:

Eº cell = Eº oxidation + Eº reduction

Now in order to determine which of the species is going to be oxidized, we have to remember that the more the value of the reduction potential is negative,  the greater its tendency to be oxidized is. In electrochemistry we use the values of the reductions potential in the tables for simplicity  because the only thing we need to do is change the sign of the reduction potential for the oxized species .

So the species that is going to be oxidized is the Aluminium, and therefore:

Eº cell = -( -1.66 V ) + 0.340 V =  5.06 V

Equally valid is to write the equation as:

Eº cell = Eº reduction for the reduced species - Eº reduction for the oxidized species

These two expressions are equivalent, choose the one you fell more comfortable but be careful with the signs.

When reactants and products are being formed at an equal rate in a chemical reaction, the ____. a. reaction is endergonic b. fre
attashe74 [19]
<h2>The answer is option b "free energy is zero"</h2>

Explanation

  • The reaction that has negative free energy are called exergonic reactions that means the reactants have more free energy than the product formed.
  • The reaction that has positive free energy are called endergonic reactions that means the final state or the products formed have more free energy than the initial state or the reactants.
  • The reaction that has zero free energy occurs when the free energy of both reactants and the products are same hence the rate of formation of products and reactants are equal.
  • Therefore, when reactants and products are being formed at an equal rate the free energy is zero.

10 points Which of these is the best example of heat transfer by radiation? *
insens350 [35]

Answer:

a) A satellite is warmed by sunlight.

Explanation:

Heat transfer by radiation mostly involves heat gain or heat loss from the Sun. In this case, Option A is the only option where sunlight is involved so it is the best example of heat transfer by radiation.

Determine the molarity of a solution prepared by dissolving 0.198 g of "KHP" (C8H5O4K) in enough water to make 125 mL of solutio
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

0.007756M KHP; 0.0009695 moles NaOH reacts; 0.03488M NaOH.

Explanation:

Potassium hydrogen phthalate, KHP, is a salt used as standard to determine concentration of basic solutions as NaOH solutions.

To find molarity of the KHP solution we need to convert mass of KHP to moles and divide this in 125mL = 0.125L:

<em>Moles KHP -Molar mass: 204.22g/mol-:</em>

0.198g * (1mol / 204.22g) = 0.0009695 moles KHP

<em>Molarity:</em>

0.0009695 moles KHP / 0.125L = 0.007756M KHP

NaOH reacts with KHP as follows:

NaOH + KHP → Na⁺ + KP⁻ + H₂O

That means 1 mole of NaOH reacts per mole of KHP, that means moles of NaOH that reacts are = Moles of KHP added:

0.0009695 moles NaOH reacts

In 27.80mL = 0.02780L the NaOH was contained. Molarity is:

0.0009695 moles NaOH / 0.02780L =

0.03488M NaOH
