An electrolytic cell is set up with Cd(s) in Cd(NO3)2(aq) and Zn(s) in Zn(NO3)2(aq). Initially both electrodesweigh 5.00 g. After running the cell for several hours theelectrode in the left compartment weighs 4.75 g. (a) Which electrode is in the left compartment? (b) Does the mass of the electrode in the right compartmentincrease, decrease, or stay the same? If the masschanges, what is the new mass? (c) Does the volume of the electrode in the right compartment increase, decrease, or stay the same? If the volumechanges, what is the new volume? (The density of Cd is8.65 g/cm3.)

What is the standard cell potential you would obtain from a cell at 25C using an electrode in which Hg22+(aq) is in contact with mercury metal and an electrode in which an aluminum strip dips into a solution of Al3+(aq)?
The iron content of hemoglobin is determined by destroying the hemoglobin molecule and producing small water-soluble ions and molecules. The iron in the aqueous solution is reduced to iron(II) ion and then titrated against potassium permanganate. In the titration, iron(ll) is oxidized to iron(III) and permanganate is reduced to manganese(II) ion. A 5.00-g sample of hemoglobin requires 32.3 mL of a 0.002100 M solution of potassium permanganate. The reaction with permanganate ion is MnO4(aq)+8H+(aq)+5Fe2+(aq)Mn2+(aq)+5Fe3+(aq)+4H2O What is the mass percent of iron in hemoglobin?
For the reaction in Question 6, write balanced halfreactions.
Describe what you expect to happen when the following solutions are electrolyzed: a aqueous Na2SO4; b aqueous KBr. That is, what are the electrode reactions? What is the overall reaction?
