What drives a galvanic cell?

Chemistry
1 answer:
lutik1710 [3]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A galvanic cell is driven by the spontaneity of the chemical reaction occurring between the two compartments of the cell: Anode and Cathode.

Explanation:

A galvanic cell is driven by the spontaneity of the chemical reaction occurring between the two compartments of the cell: Anode and Cathode.

Note that the spontaneity of a reaction is either determined by its positive standard cell potential ( ξ ∘ ) or its negative free energy ( Δ G ∘ ).

For a reaction system at equilibrium, LeChatelier's principle can be used to predict the A) activation energy for the system B)
SCORPION-xisa [38]

For a reaction system at equilibrium, LeChatelier's principle can be used to predict the "effect of a stress on the system".

<u>Option: C</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Le Chatelier's theory can be implemented to forecast a system's behavior due to variations in pressure, temperature, or concentration that will lead in predictable and contested variations in the system adjustments to establish a new state of equilibrium. This means that adding heat to a process would favor the endothermic path of a reaction, because this decreases the amount of heat generated in the system.

Here shift in equilibrium take place when volume increase, the total pressure decreases, which have potential to reverse the reaction, while on increasing pressure of system, the total volume decreases of the gaseous system, which can shift an equilibrium in the direction of the fewer molecules.

A rigid stainless steel chamber contains 180 Torr of methane, CH 4 , and excess oxygen, O 2 , at 160.0 °C. A spark is ignited in
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

No pressure will change in the chamber at reactions end

Explanation:

CH4 + 2O2 ---> CO2 + 2H2O

According the above reaction

There are 3 moles total of gaseous reactants, and 3 moles total of gaseous products, so this reaction results in no change of volume. Therefore, since this happens at constant volume and constant temperature, the pressures are directly related to the moles used and produced. This way, no pressure will change in the chamber at reactions end

One of the emission lines that provides the green color in fireworks, which com s from barium salts, has a wavelength of 505nm.
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Explanation:

(a)

The relation between frequency and wavelength is shown below as:

c=frequency\times Wavelength&#10;

c is the speed of light having value 3\times 10^8\ m/s

Given, Wavelength = 505 nm

Also, 1 m = 10^{-9} nm

So,  

Wavelength = 505\times 10^{-9} m

Thus, Frequency is:

Frequency=\frac{c}{Wavelength}

Frequency=\frac{3\times 10^8}{505\times 10^{-9}}\ Hz

Frequency=5.94\times 10^{14}\ Hz

(b)

Also, E=\frac {h\times c}{\lambda}

Where,  

h is Plank's constant having value 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js

c is the speed of light having value 3\times 10^8\ m/s

So,

E=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{505\times 10^{-9}}\ J

E=\frac{10^{-26}\times \:19.878}{10^{-9}\times \:505}\ J

E=3.94\times 10^{-19}\ J

(c)

Electromagnetic spectrum is range of the frequencies and their respective wavelengths of the various type of the electromagnetic radiation.

In order of the increasing frequency and the photon energy and the decreasing wavelength the spectrum are:  

Red , Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet

Increasing wavelength is the opposite trend. Thus, The longest visible wavelength is red and the shortest is violet.
