2. Ate Shawol and Concertina performed electrolysis to determine the identity of an unknown metal X. They determined that 3 electrons are involved in the reaction per mole of the unknown metal X. After applying 1.495 A of current for 18.00 hours, 17.41 g of the unknown metal was deposited to the electrode. Help Ate Shawol and Concertina determine the identity of the unknown metal X.

2. Ate Shawol and Concertina performed electrolysis to determine the identity of an
unknown metal X. They determined that 3 electrons are involved in the reaction
per mole of the unknown metal X. After applying 1.495 A of current for 18.00
hours, 17.41 g of the unknown metal was deposited to the electrode. Help Ate
Shawol and Concertina determine the identity of the unknown metal X.
3. Complete and balance the chemical reaction using method of half-reactions. Write
your answer in your solution sheet.
Cu(s) + NO3(aq) Cu²¹ (aq) + NO₂(g) (acidic solution)

1. A student constructed
used 0.25 M Ni(NO3)2
a voltaic cell using nickel and lead as electrodes. He also
as the anolyte and 0.50 M Pb(NO3)2 as the catholyte.
Ni2+ (aq) + 2e → Ni(s), Eºred = -0.25 V
Pb2+ (aq) + 2e → Pb(s), Eºr - 0.13 V
red = -
A. Write the balanced reaction occurring in the voltaic cell. Write your answers in
your solution sheet.
B. Compute the standard cell potential, Eºcell-
C. Calculate the cell potential at 30 °C, Ecell-
D. If the concentration of Ni(NO3)2 solution used was increased, what will be the
effect on the measured potential? (increase, decrease, no effect)
