Answer:
<h3>
</h3>
Explanation:
First balance the chemical equation:
⇄ 
two components are solid so these two will not exert any kind of pressure in the container so at equilibrium only CO2 will apply pressure on the container
Therefore only partial pressure of CO2 will be taken for the calculation of equilibrium pressure constant i.e. Kp
![K_p=[CO_2]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=K_p%3D%5BCO_2%5D)
![[CO_2]=p](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BCO_2%5D%3Dp)
Answer:
Maintaining a high starting-material concentration can render this reaction favorable.
Explanation:
A reaction is <em>favorable</em> when <em>ΔG < 0</em> (<em>exergonic</em>). ΔG depends on the temperature and on the reaction of reactants and products as established in the following expression:
ΔG = ΔG° + R.T.lnQ
where,
ΔG° is the standard Gibbs free energy
R is the ideal gas constant
T is the absolute temperature
Q is the reaction quotient
To make ΔG < 0 when ΔG° > 0 we need to make the term R.T.lnQ < 0. Since T is always positive we need lnQ to be negative, what happens when Q < 1. Q < 1 implies the concentration of reactants being greater than the concentration of products, that is, maintaining a high starting-material concentration will make Q < 1.
Answer:
E° = 0.65 V
Explanation:
Let's consider the following reductions and their respective standard reduction potentials.
Sn⁴⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻ → Sn²⁺(aq) E°red = 0.15 V
Ag⁺(aq) + e⁻ → Ag(s) E°red = 0.80 V
The reaction with the highest reduction potential will occur as a reduction while the other will occur as an oxidation. The corresponding half-reactions are:
Reduction (cathode): Ag⁺(aq) + e⁻ → Ag(s) E°red = 0.80 V
Oxidation (anode): Sn²⁺(aq) → Sn⁴⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻ E°red = 0.15 V
The overall cell potential (E°) is the difference between the standard reduction potential of the cathode and the standard reduction potential of the anode.
E° = E°red, cat - E°red, an = 0.80 V - 0.15 V = 0.65 V
