How can a redox reaction be used as a source of electrical energy?

Answers

A redox reaction be used as a source of electrical energy only when two half-reactions are physically separated. The electrons that are released at the anode flow through the wire, producing an electric current. Galvanic cells therefore transform chemical energy into electrical energy that can then be used to do work.

Explanation:

Electrical energy is the energy produced due to flow of electrons.

Whereas a reaction in which oxidation and reduction reaction takes place is known as a redox reaction. Basically, there is exchange of electrons that take place in a redox reaction.

For example, $H_(2) + F_(2) \rightarrow 2HF$

Oxidation half reaction: $H_(2) \rightarrow 2H^(+) + 2e^(-)$

Reduction half reaction: $F_(2) + 2e^(-) \rightarrow 2F^(-)$

Hence, this flow of electrons acts as a source of electrical energy.

The tempertaure at which the pressure of the vapor of a liquid is equal to the external pressure acting on the surface of the liquid?

Answers

Answer: Boiling point

Explanation:

Boiling point is the temperature where the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the pressure of the gas present above it.

The normal boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which its vapor pressure is equal to one atmosphere.

Boiling point depends on the intermolecular forces present between the molecules. More are the intermolecular forces, lesser will be the vapor pressure and thus more heat will be supplied to make vapor pressure equal to the atmospheric pressure. Thus higher will be the boiling point.

Normal boiling point for water is $100^0C$ .

Electrons always fill orbitals in the same order. Each s orbital holds 2 electrons, each set of p orbitals holds 6 electrons, each set of d orbitals holds 10 electrons, and each set of f orbitals holds 14 electrons.

The melting points of canola oil, corn oil, sunflower oil, and peanut oil are 10°C, –11°C, –17°C, and –2°C. If you cool a mixture of these oils to 5°C, which one can you separate easily?

Answers

Answer: the canola oil.

Explanation:

According to the melting points reported, at 5°C canola oil, whose melting point is 10°C, will freeze (become solid), while the other three, corn oil, sunflower oil, and peanut oil, having melting points several degrees below 5°C, will remain in liquid state.

Therefore, by decantation or filtration, which are processes that permit separate solids from liquids in a mixture, you can separate easily the solid canola oil from the other three liquid oils.

After separating the canola oil, If you continue cooling the mixture and reach a temperature of - 5°C. the peanut oil, whose melting point is -2°C, whill freeze and you will be able to separate it (again by decantation or filtration).

The same operation, cooling a third time until a temperature around 12°C, will permit you to separate the remaining two oils.

As you see, the knowledge of the physical properties of the substances is a useful tool to separate mixtures.

You can separate the canola oil because it turns back into a solid state while the others remain liquid.

Write the net ionic equation for the following reaction:

AgC2H3O2(aq) + CaCl2(aq) →

Answers

Answer:

2Ag^+(aq) + 2Cl^-(aq) --------> 2AgCl(s)

Explanation:

The net ionic equation reflects the main reaction that occurred in the system. It tells you the most important reaction that took place.

If we first put down the balanced molecular equation for the reaction, we have;

CaCl2(aq) + 2 AgC2H3O2(aq) ---------> 2 AgCl(s) + Ca(C2H3O2)2 (aq)

The net ionic equation is;

2Ag^+(aq) + 2Cl^-(aq) --------> 2AgCl(s)

What is the concentration of a solution, in parts per million, if 0.02 gram of Na3PO4 is dissolved in 1000 grams of water?(1) 20 ppm (3) 0.2 ppm
(2) 2 ppm (4) 0.02 ppm

Answers

ppm = mass of solute in mg / mass of solvent in kg

0.02 x 1000 = 20 mg (solute )

1000 / 1000 = 1.0 kg

ppm = 20 / 1.0

= 20 ppm

Answer (1)

hope this helps!
