Concept introduction:Study of interchange between electrical and chemical energy falls under branch of chemistry called
Reactions that occur in galvanic cells can be broken down into two half-cell reactions. One half-cell reaction is that of reduction whereas another half-cell reaction is that of oxidation.
b)
Interpretation: Whether below statement is true or not should be determined.
The oxidizing agent is at the anode in the galvanic cell.
Concept introduction:Electrochemical cells that convert chemical energy to electrical energy are called galvanic cells. These are also known as voltaic cells. In these cells, spontaneous redox reactions take place.
c)
Interpretation: Whether below statement is true or not should be determined.
If the half reactions in the cell are as follows:
The anode will be aluminum.
Concept introduction: Electrochemical cells that convert chemical energy to electrical energy are called galvanic cells. These are also known as voltaic cells. In these cells, spontaneous redox reactions take place.
d)
Interpretation: Whether below statement is true or not should be determined.
The movement of the electrons takes place from lower to higher ion concentration in the concentration cell.
Concept introduction:Electrochemical cells that convert chemical energy to electrical energy are called galvanic cells. These are also known as voltaic cells. In these cells, spontaneous redox reactions take place. Concentration cells are special cases of galvanic cells that consist of two half-cells with same electrodes but different concentrations.
e)
Interpretation: Whether below statement is true or not should be determined.
In the salt bridge of the galvanic cell, negative ions flow in the same direction of the electrons.
Concept introduction:Study of interchange between electrical and chemical energy falls under branch of chemistry called electrochemistry. It includes occurrence of oxidation and reduction reactions. This includes production of electric current from chemical reaction and vice-versa.

- An expression for the root mean square velocity, vrms, of a gas was derived. Using Maxwell’s velocity distribution, one can also calculate the mean velocity and the most probable velocity (mp) of a collection of molecules. The equations used for these two quantities are vmean=(8RT/πM)1/2 and vmp=(2RT/M)1/2 These values have a fixed relationship to each other.(a) Arrange these three quantities in order of increasing magnitude.(b) Show that the relative magnitudes are independent of the molar mass of the gas.(c) Use the smallest velocity as a reference for establishing the order of magnitude and determine the relationship between the larger and smaller values.arrow_forwardThe reaction of solid dimethylhydrazine, (CH3)2N2H2, and liquefied dinitrogen tetroxide, N2O4, has been investigated for use as rocket fuel. The reaction produces the gases carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen (N2), and water vapor (H2O), which are ejected in the exhaust gases. In a controlled experiment, solid dimethylhydrazine was reacted with excess dinitrogen tetroxide, and the gases were collected in a closed balloon until a pressure of 2.50 atm and a temperature of 400.0 K were reached.(a) What are the partial pressures of CO2, N2, and H2O?(b) When the CO2 is removed by chemical reaction, what are the partial pressures of the remaining gases?arrow_forwardOne liter of chlorine gas at 1 atm and 298 K reacts completely with 1.00 L of nitrogen gas and 2.00 L of oxygen gas at the same temperature and pressure. A single gaseous product is formed, which fills a 2.00 L flask at 1.00 atm and 298 K. Use this information to determine the following characteristics of the product:(a) its empirical formula;(b) its molecular formula;(c) the most favorable Lewis formula based on formal charge arguments (the central atom is N);(d) the shape of the molecule.arrow_forward
