A voltaic cell is constructed with two silver-silver chloride electrodes, each of which is based on the following half-reaction:

AgCl(s)+e−→Ag(s)+Cl−(aq). The two cell compartments have [Cl−]= 1.51×10−2 M and [Cl−]= 2.90 M , respectively. A) Which electrode is the cathode of the cell?B) What is the standard emf of the cell?C) What is the cell emf for the concentrations given?D) For the anode compartment, predict whether [Cl−] will increase, decrease, or stay the same as the cell operates.E) For the cathode compartment, predict whether [Cl−] will increase, decrease, or stay the same as the cell operates.

The following are the answers for the given problem

<u>Explanation:</u>

a) we have the half reaction:

AgCl (s) + e- = Ag(s) + Cl-(aq)

Ag(s) + Cl-(aq) = AgCl (s) + e-

According to several sources, and textbooks, the less concentrated ion will be the in the cathode cell to promove the reduction reaction. In this case, we can say that Cl- = 0.0143 M is the electrode in the cathode cell,because is reducting from zero to 1, so, it's the cathode.

b) As we are having a two silver-silver electrode, both reactions have the same emf in each reaction so:

d) As oxidation is ocurring in the anode according to the half reaction above, we can say that Cl- is consumed, therefore it will decrease as the cell operates.

e) As reduction is ocurring in the cathode, according to the half reaction above, we can say that Cl- is produced, therefore it will increase as the cell operates.

Three 5-l flasks, fixed with pressure gauges and small valves, each contains 4 g of gas at 273 k. flask a contains h2, flask b c

First, please check the missing part in your question in the attachment.
a) So first, the Rank of pressure:
according to this formula PV = nRT and when n = m/Mw
PV = m/Mw * R*T
when we have the same mass m and the same V volume so P will proportional with the mole weight M as when the M is smaller the pressure will be greater 
when Mw of H2(A) = 2 g / Mw of He (B) = 4 g and Mw of CH4(C) = 16 g
∴ Pressure :
 (A) > (B) > (c)

B) The rank of average molecular kinetic energy:
when K = 3/2 KB T
when K is the average kinetic energy per molecule of gas 
and KB is Boltzmann's constant
and T is the temperature (K)
So from this equation, we can know that K only depends on T value, and when we have the T constant here for A, B, and C So the rank of K will be like the following:
∴ A = B = C
C) the rank of diffusion rate after the valve is opened:
according to this formula:
R2/R1 = √M1/M2
from this equation, we can see that diffusion is proportional to the reciprocal of the molecular mass M so,
when Mw H2 (A) = 2 g & Mw He(B) = 4 g & CH4 (C) = 16 g
∴ the rank of diffusion:
A > B > C

D) The rank of the Total kinetic energy of the molecules:
when we have the Mw different so it will make the no.of molecules differs as when the Mw is low the no.of molecules will be hight, and when the average molecular kinetic energy equals. so the total kinetic energy will depend on no. of molecules 
∵ Mw A < Mw B < Mw C 
∴no .of molecules of A > B >C
∴ the rank of total kinetic energy is:
A > B > C

e) the rank of density:

when ρ = m/ v 
and m is the mass & v is the volume and we have both is the same for A, B, and C
so the density also will be the same, ∴ the rank of the density is:
A = B = C

F) the rank of the collision frequency:
as the no.of molecules increase the collision frequency increase and depend also on the velocity and it's here the same.
∴ Collision frequency will only depend on the no.of molecules
we have no.of molecules of A > B > C as Mw A < B < C 
∴the rank of the collision frequency is:
A > B > C

Which bond from each set has the greatest bond energy and why?. A.) N-O or N-F. B.) B-F or B-Cl. C.) B-C or O-F. D.) C-O or C=O.
sergiy2304 [10]
Bond energy is basically how much energy it takes to break that molecule apart. The main things that affect bond energy is electronegativity and the number of bonds. I believe the correct answer is C=O. It <span>has the greatest bond energy, because it is harder to break apart a double bond than a single bond.</span>

What are some non examples of biodiversity
zhenek [66]
A monocrop is a non example of biodiversity because it contains only one species, such as all corn, therefore there is very little biodiversity.
