Identify those elements that can be prepared by electrolysis of their aqueous salts: fluorine, manganese, iron, cadmium.
The overall cell reaction occurring in an alkaline battery is
(a) How many moles of electrons flow per mole of reaction?
(b) Ifof zinc is oxidized, how many grams of manganese dioxide and of water are consumed?
(c) What is the total mass of reactants consumed in part (b)?
(d) How many coulombs are produced in part (b)?
(e) In practice, voltaic cells of a given capacity (coulombs) are heavier than the calculation in part (c) indicates. Explain.
Compare and contrast a voltaic cell and an electrolytic cell with respect to each of the following:
(a) Sign of the free energy change
(b) Nature of the half-reaction at the anode
(c) Nature of the half-reaction at the cathode
(d) Charge on the electrode labelled 鈥渁node鈥
(e) Electrode from which electrons leave the cell
How is a standard reference electrode used to determine unknown half-cell values?
A voltaic cell is constructed with an half-cell and an half-cell. The iron electrode is positive.
(a) Write balanced half-reactions and the overall reaction.
(b) Diagram the cell, labeling electrodes with their charges and showing the directions of electron flow in the circuit and of cation and anion flow in the salt bridge.
