Consider an electrolytic cell with a platinum anode and a silver cathode in a 1.0 M AgNO3(aq) solution.

a) (3 pts) What species can be reduced in this solution? Which species is preferentially reduced? Write the reduction half- reaction. (Note that oxyanions like nitrate are not commonly reduced in aqueous electrolysis due to kinetic reasons.)

b) (2 pts) Which species is oxidized during the electrolysis? Write the oxidation half-reaction. Note that acid will form as a byproduct of the oxidation.

c) (2 pts) Write the overall electrolysis reaction in net ionic and molecular forms.

d) (2 pts) Determine the external electric potential needed for the electrolysis under standard conditions.

e) (5 pts) If the electrolysis is carried out for 1.00 hour using 1.00 A current, how many grams of metal will be deposited at the cathode and how many liters of gas will form at the anode at 1.00 atm pressure and 25°C?

Harvey kept a balloon with a volume of 348 milliliters at 25.0˚c inside a freezer for a night.  when he took it out, its new volume was 322 milliliters, but its pressure was the same.  if the final temperature of the balloon is the same as the freezer’s, what is the temperature of the freezer? the temperature of the freezer is  kelvins.
