Use calc to determine whether it is possible to remove 99.99% Cu2 by converting it to Cu(s) in a solution mixture containing 0.12 Cu2 and 0.12 MSn2 suppose it is at room temperature.

it is possible to remove 99.99% Cu2 by converting it to Cu(s)

Explanation:

So, from the question/problem above we are given the following ionic or REDOX equations of reactions;

Cu2+ + 2e- <> Cu (s) Eo= 0.339 V

Sn2+ + 2e- <> Sn (s) Eo= -0.141 V

In order to convert 99.99% Cu2 into Cu(s), the equation of reaction given below is needed:

Cu²⁺ + Sn > Cu + Sn²⁺.

Therefore, E°[overall] = 0.339 - [-0.141] = 0.48 V.

Therefore, the change in Gibbs' free energy, ΔG° = - nFE°. Where E° = O.48V, n= 2 and F = 96500 C.

Thus, ΔG° = - 92640.

This is less than zero[0]. Therefore,  it is possible to remove 99.99% Cu2 by converting it to Cu(s) because the reaction is a spontaneous reaction.  

assuming that your periodic table has eighteen columns, you should highlight   the four elements in the third column from the left of the table.

neutral atoms of elements after calcium contain d electrons. the energy of d orbitals of a particular main shell lies between the energy of the s and p orbitals of the next main shell. for example, electrons in the have energy higher than those in the orbital while lower than those of the orbital.

by the aufbau principle, electrons fill orbitals one at a time, starting from those of the lowest energy. the orbital is therefore filled right after orbitals and before orbitals.  

potassium has electron configuration and calcium . the s orbital of a main shell holds a maximum of two electrons. the next element would thus have the electron configuration and satisfy the requirements.

a neutral atom of the element contains three electrons on top of the most recent noble gas element. it should thus be placed in the third column of the periodic table. both scandium and yttrium would satisfy the conditions. an aufbau diagram indicates that the 4f orbital is filled before the 5d. however, it appears that exceptions exists for both lanthanum and actinium. neutral atoms of the two d-block elements also demonstrate the and should be highlighted as well.
