I don’t know not really sure just need the point sorry
- Standard reduction potential of Ag/Ag⁺ is 0.80 v and that of Cu⁺²(aq)/Cu⁰ is +0.34 V.
- The couple with a greater value of standard reduction potential will oxidize the reduced form of the other couple.
Ag⁺ will be reduced to Ag(s) and Cu⁰ will be oxidized to Cu²⁺
Anode reaction: Cu⁰(s) → Cu²⁺ + 2 e⁻ E⁰ = +0.34 V
Cathode reaction: Ag⁺(aq) + e → Ag(s) E⁰ = +0.80 V
Cell reaction: Cu⁰(s) + 2 Ag⁺(aq) → Cu⁺²(aq) + 2 Ag⁰(s)
E⁰ cell = E⁰ cathode + E⁰ anode
= 0.80 + (-0.34) = + 0.46 V
Because they have similar attractive forces in their molecules
Answer:
The attractive force between them decreases
Explanation:
This is because they become localised.
