12. A voltaic cell consists of a chromium electrode dipped in a 1.20 M chromium (III) nitrate

1 answer:

5 0

For a voltaic cell consisting of chromium, an electrode dipped in a 1.20 M chromium (III) nitrate solution and a tin electrode dipped in a 0.400 M tin (II) nitrate solution, the cell potential at 298 K is mathematically given as

Ecell = 0.577 V

<h3 /><h3>What is the cell potential at 298 K?</h3>

Generally, the equation for the Oxidation and Reduction is mathematically given as

Cr(s) ------------------ Cr+3(aq) + 3e- ] x 2 ...O

Sn+2(aq) + 2e- ------------ Sn(s) ] x 3 ...R

Reaction

2 Cr(s) + 3 Sn+2(aq) --------------- 2 Cr+3(aq) + 3 Sn(s)

Therefore

Eicell = - 0.14 - ( - 0.74)

Eicell = 0.60

In conclusion

$Ecell= E0cell - \frac{0.0591}{n} * \frac{log[Cr+3]^2}{ [ Sn+2]^3}$

$Ecell = 0.60 - \frac{0.0591 }{6} \frac{log( 1.20)^2}{ ( 0.200)^3}$

Ecell = 0.577 V

Which process is caused by an increase in thermal energy

Over [174]

Answer:

They're different - heat and thermal energy. ... The heat, in turn, speeds up the molecules within the pot and the water. If you place a thermometer in the water, as the water heats up, you can watch the temperature rise. Again, an increase in internal energy will result in an increase in temperature.

A buffer is composed of nh3 and nh4cl. How would this buffer solution control the ph of a solution when a small amount of a stro

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

According to Le-chatelier principle, equilibrium will shift towards left to minimize concentration of $OH^{-}$ and keep same equilibrium constant

Explanation:

In this buffer following equilibrium exists -

$NH_{3}(aq.)+H_{2}O(l)\rightleftharpoons NH_{4}^{+}(aq.)+OH^{-}(aq.)$

So, $OH^{-}$ is involved in the above equilibrium.

When a strong base is added to this buffer, then concentration of $OH^{-}$ increases. Hence, according to Le-chatelier principle, above equilibrium will shift towards left to minimize concentration of $OH^{-}$ and keep same equilibrium constant.

Therefore excess amount of $OH^{-}$ combines with $NH_{4}^{+}$ to produce ammonia and water. So, effect of addition of strong base on pH of buffer gets minimized.
