3. What do you understand by the electrode potential series of the elements? Comment on the following: (a) Iron is. above hydrogen in the electrode-potential series, but hydrogen can reduce iron oxide. (b) Sodium is above zinc in the electrode-potential series, but when sodium is placed in a solution of a zinc salt, hydrogen is liberated. (c) Hydrogen is above copper in the electrode-potential series, but hydrogen will not displace copper from solutions of its salts. (0. & C., S, 1956)

It was invented in 1859 by French physician Gaston Plante and still retains application today, more than 150 years later. There are two reactions that take place during discharge of the lead-acid storage battery. In one step, sulfuric acid decomposes to form sulfur trioxide and water: H₂SO4(1) SO3(9) + H₂O(1) ΔΗ=+113. In another step, lead, lead(IV) oxide, and sulfur trioxide react to form lead(II) sulfate: Pb(s) + PbO2(s) + 2 SO3(g) â†’ 2 PbSO4(s) Î”H = -775 kJ Calculate the net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of lead(II) sulfate from lead, lead(IV) oxide, and sulfuric acid from these reactions. Round your answer to the nearest kJ.
