Calculate the emf of the following concentration cell at \(25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) : $$ \mathrm{Cu}(s)\left|\mathrm{Cu}^{2+}(0.080 \mathrm{M}) \| \mathrm{Cu}^{2+}(1.2 \mathrm{M})\right| \mathrm{Cu}(s) $$
For each of the following redox reactions, (i) write the half-reactions; (ii) write a balanced equation for the whole reaction, (iii) determine in which direction the reaction will proceed spontaneously under standard-state conditions: (a) \(\mathrm{H}_{2}(g)+\mathrm{Ni}^{2+}(a q) \longrightarrow \mathrm{H}^{+}(a q)+\mathrm{Ni}(s)\) (b) \(\mathrm{MnO}_{4}^{-}(a q)+\mathrm{Cl}^{-}(a q) \longrightarrow\) \(\mathrm{Mn}^{2+}(a q)+\mathrm{Cl}_{2}(g)\) (in acid solution) (c) \(\mathrm{Cr}(s)+\mathrm{Zn}^{2+}(a q) \longrightarrow \mathrm{Cr}^{3+}(a q)+\mathrm{Zn}(s)\)
Calculate the amounts of \(\mathrm{Cu}\) and \(\mathrm{Br}_{2}\) produced in \(1.0 \mathrm{~h}\) at inert electrodes in a solution of \(\mathrm{CuBr}_{2}\) by a current of 4.50 A.
A sample of iron ore weighing \(0.2792 \mathrm{~g}\) was dissolved in an excess of a dilute acid solution. All the iron was first converted to \(\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{II})\) ions. The solution then required \(23.30 \mathrm{~mL}\) of \(0.0194 \mathrm{M} \mathrm{KMnO}_{4}\) for oxidation to Fe(III) ions. Calculate the percent by mass of iron in the ore.
What is a cell diagram? Write the cell diagram for a galvanic cell consisting of an Al electrode placed in a \(1 \mathrm{MAl}\left(\mathrm{NO}_{3}\right)_{3}\) solution and a Ag electrode placed in a \(1 M \mathrm{AgNO}_{3}\) solution.
