(a) $\rm E^o$ = 2.23 V, E = 2.2 V, $\Delta$ G = 424.6 kJ/mol

(b) $\rm E^o$ = 0.336 V, E = 0.332 V, $\Delta$ G = 64.076 kJ/mol

(a) Oxidation potential of Mg = 2.37

Oxidation potential of $\rm Sn^2^+$ = -0.14

Mg + $\rm Sn^2^+$ = 2.37 + (-0.14)

$\rm E^o$ = 2.23 V

According to nerst equation:

$E_c_e_l_l\;=\;E^o\;-\;\frac{0.059}{n}\;\times\;\frac{Mg}{Sn}$

$E_c_e_l_l\;=\;2.23\;-\;\frac{0.059}{2}\;\times\;\frac{0.025}{0.040}$

E = 2.2 V

$\Delta$ G= nFE

$\Delta$ G = 2 $\times$ 96500 $\times$ 2.2

$\Delta$ G = 424600 J/mol

$\Delta$ G = 424.6 kJ/mol

(b) Reduction potential of Zn = 0.76

Reduction potential of Cr = 0.424

$\rm E^o$ = reduction - oxidation

$\rm E^o$ = 0.76 - 0.424

$\rm E^o$ = 0.336 V

According to nerst equation:

$E_c_e_l_l\;=\;E^o\;-\;\frac{0.059}{n}\;\times\;\frac{Zn}{Cr}$

$E_c_e_l_l\;=\;0.336\;-\;\frac{0.059}{3}\;\times\;\frac{0.0085}{0.040}$

E = 0.332 V

$\Delta$ G= nFE

$\Delta$ G = 2 $\times$ 96500 $\times$ 0.332

$\Delta$ G = 64076 J/mol

$\Delta$ G = 64.076 kJ/mol.

Answer from: macattack6276

E⁰(cell) = 2.24V

E(cell) = 2.246V

∆G = -433 KJ/mol

Explanation:

Mg(s) + Sn²⁺(aq) ⇌ Mg²⁺(aq) + Sn(s)

[Mg2+] = 0.025 M

[Sn2+] = 0.040 M

First we need the standard reduction potentials:

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . E°(V)

Mg²⁺ + 2 e⁻ ⇌ Mg(s). . .−2.372

Sn²⁺ + 2 e⁻ ⇌ Sn(s) . . . −0.13

Take the more negative (or less positive in other cases) one, and write it as an oxidation:

Mg(s) ⇌ Mg²⁺ + 2 e⁻. . .+2.372 V

Combine them,

Mg(s) + Sn²⁺ ⇌ Mg²⁺ + Sn(s)

E°(cell) = +2.372 – 0.13 V = 2.24 V

To get the cell potential under the conditions given, use the Nernst Equation:

E(cell) = E°(cell) – [(0.059)/n]•logQ = 2.24 V – 0.0295 V • log [Mg²⁺]/[Sn²⁺]

Note that the solids don't appear in Q, only the concs. of the dissolved ions.

E(cell) = 2.24 V – 0.0295 V X log (0.025)/(0.040)

= 2.24 + 0.006 V ≈ 2.246 V

The concentration ratio in Q (Sn²⁺ and Mg²⁺) is too close to 1 to shift E(cell) significantly from E°(cell) given the precision I have for the Sn reduction potential.

∆G = –nFE(cell) = –2(96.485 kJ/mol•V)(2.246 V) = –433 kJ/mol

E⁰(cell) = 2.24V

E(cell) = 2.246V

∆G = -433 KJ/mol

Answer from: Quest

answer: e. sour taste

explanation: acids are those substances which dissociates in water to give $h^+$ ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. acids are sour in taste. example: hcl

$hcl\rightarrow h^++cl^-$

bases are those substances which dissociates in water to give $oh^-$ ions or accepts $h^+$ ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. bases are bitter in taste. bases are slippery in nature.

$naoh\rightarrow na^++oh^-$

$nh_3+h^+\rightarrow nh_4^+$

Answer from: Quest

The grandmother cell is a hypothetical neuronthat represents a complex but specific concept or object.[1] it activates when a person "sees, hears, or otherwise sensibly discriminates"[2] a specific entity, such as his or her grandmother. the term was in use at least as early as 1966 amongst staff and students in the department of experimental psychology, university of cambridge, england. a similar concept, that of the gnostic neuron, was proposed two years later
