Answer:

The cell reaction reaches equilibrium quickly and the cell emf becomes zero.

Explanation:

The purpose of a salt bridge is not to move electrons from the electrolyte, its main function is to maintain charge balance because the electrons are moving from one-half cell to the other.

A solution of a salt that dissociates easily is normally used. Water is ineffective at functioning as a salt bridge. Hence the effect stated in the answer.

A sample of hydrogen was collected by water displacement at 23.0°C and an atmospheric pressure of 735 mmHg. Its volume is 568 mL
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

V = 552 mL or 0.552 L

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the number of moles of H2 using the ideal gas equation which is:

PV = nRT

Solving for n:

n = PV / RT

Where:

P = Pressure

V = Volume

R = Gas constant (0.082 L atm / K mol)

T = Temperature in K

Let's convert first both pressure in atm, remember that 1 atm = 760 mmHg

P = 735 / 760 = 0.967 atm

Pwater = 21 / 760 = 0.028 atm

Finally temperature to Kelvin:

T = 23 + 273.15 = 296.15 K

Now, at first the hydrogen was collected by water displacement so pressure is:

P = 0.967 - 0.028 = 0.939 atm

Now the moles of hydrogen:

n = 0.939 * 0.568 / 0.082 * 296.15

n = 0.022 moles

Now that we have the moles, let's calculate the volume when the pressure is 735 mmHg

V = nRT/P

V = 0.022 * 0.082 * 296.15 / 0.967

V = 0.552 L or 552 mL

This is the volume that hydrogen occupies.

To convert m-ethylaniline to m-ethylfluorobenzene, it should be treated with nitrous acid followed by _____________.
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

NaBF_4

Explanation:

In this reaction, we must exchange the amino group (NH_2) for a fluorine atom (F). Also, the first step in this reaction is the addition of nitrous acid.

We must remember that the amino group in the presence of nitrous acid produces a diazonium salt. The N_2 group is a very good leaving group and many benzene derivatives can be produced from this intermediate (see figure 1).

If what we want is to bond a fluorine atom we must use NaBF_4 to be able to produce m-ethylfluorobenzene (see figure 2).

I hope it helps!
