- How is the pH scale defined? What range of pH values corresponds to acidic solutions? What range corresponds to basic solutions? Why is pH = 7.00 considered neutral? When the pH of a solution changes by one unit, by what factor does the hydrogen ion concentration change in the solution? How is pOH defined? How arc pH and pOH for a given solution related? Explain.arrow_forwardCalculate K at 25°C for each of the reactions referred to in Question 31.arrow_forwardAn aqueous solution of an unknown salt of gold is electrolyzed by a current of 2.75 amps for 3.39 hours. The electroplating is carried out with an efficiency of 93.0%, resulting in a deposit of 21.221 g of gold. a How many faradays are required to deposit the gold? b What is the charge on the gold ions (based on your calculations)?arrow_forward
- Determine the equilibrium constant for the reaction Sn+Pb2+Sn2++Pbarrow_forwardWhen aluminum foil is placed in hydrochloric acid, nothing happens for the first 30 seconds or so. This is followed by vigorous bubbling and the eventual disappearance of the foil. Explain these observations.arrow_forwardThe mass of three different metal electrodes, each from a different galvanic cell, were determined before and after the current generated by the oxidation-reduction reaction in each cell was allowed to flow for a few minutes. The first metal electrode, given the label A, was found to have increased in mass; the second metal electrode, given the label B, did not change in mass; and the third metal electrode, given the label C, was found to have lost mass. Make an educated guess as to which electrodes were active and which were inert electrodes, and which were anode(s) and which were the cathode(s).arrow_forward
- Consider the equilibrium system HF(aq)H+(aq)+F(aq) Given HfHF(aq)=320.1kJ/mol , HfF(aq)=332.6kJ/mol ; SF(aq)=13.8kJ/molK ; KaHF=6.9104 at 25°C calculate S° for HF(aq).arrow_forwardWhat 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)?arrow_forwardFor the reaction Cu2+(aq) + Zn(s) → Cu(s) + Zn2+ (aq), why can’t you generate electric current by placing a piece of copper metal and a piece of zinc metal in a solution containing CuCl2(aq) and ZnCl2(aq)?arrow_forward
- Calculate K at 25°C for each of the reactions referred to in Question 32. Assume smallest whole-number coefficients.arrow_forwarda Calculate G for the following cell reaction: Tl(s)Tl+(aq)Pb2+(aq)Pb(s) The Gf for Tl+(aq) is 32.4 kJ/mol. b From G, calculate the standard cell potential for the cell reaction and from this, determine the standard potential for Tl2+(aq)+eTl(s).arrow_forwardThe following reaction occurs in pure water: H2O(l)+H2O(l)H3O+(aq)+OH-(aq) which is often abbreviated as H2O(l)H+(aq)+OH-(aq) For this reaction, G = 79.9 kJ/mol at 25C. Calculate the value of G for this reaction at 25C when [OH] = 0.15 M and [H+] = 0.71 M.arrow_forward
