Question
Delt G0 for a particular reaction is large negative number Ea for the same reaction is a large postive number. @ standard conditions.
a. Reaction is spontaneous but will proceed slowly
b.Reaction will rapidly go to completion
c. this is an explosivley exothermic reaction.
d.this is not a spontaneous reaction
II. Strongest reducing agent ?
Standar reduction potentials
Na+ + e- = Na E0 = -2.71 V
Mg2+ + 2e- = Mg E0=-2.37 V
a. Mg b. Mg2+ c. Na d. Na+
V. whoch correctly distinguishes a voltaic cell from an electrolytic cell ?
Electrolytic ,Voltaic
a. anode is postive, anode is negative
b.reduction at cathode, reduction at anode
c. Delta G <0, Delta G >0
d.Kinetics are slow, Kinetics are fast
Explanation / Answer
Delt G0 for a particular reaction is large negative number Ea for the same reaction is a large postive number. @ standard conditions.
a. Reaction is spontaneous but will proceed slowly; since it requires a lot of energy to react, i.e. to break the barrier
b.Reaction will rapidly go to completion
c. this is an explosivley exothermic reaction.
d.this is not a spontaneous reaction
II. Strongest reducing agent ?
Standar reduction potentials
Na+ + e- = Na E0 = -2.71 V
Mg2+ + 2e- = Mg E0=-2.37 V
a. Mg b. Mg2+ c. Na d. Na+
strongest reducing agent ---> easiest to oxidize, i.e. the lowest E° potential
then
choose Na(s) , it is likely to oxidize to form Na+ faster
V. whoch correctly distinguishes a voltaic cell from an electrolytic cell ?
Electrolytic ,Voltaic
a. anode is postive, anode is negative
b.reduction at cathode, reduction at anode
c. Delta G <0, Delta G >0
In electrolysis, we need to provide electric current; in galvanic we GET electric current
d.Kinetics are slow, Kinetics are fast
