Question
  1. A galvanic cell is prepared using copper and silver. Its cell notation is shown below: 
    Cu(s) | Cu2+(aq) || Ag+(aq) | Ag(s) 

    Which of the following processes occurs at the cathode? 

      A.

    Cu(s) → Cu2+(aq) + 2e-

      B.

    Cu2+(aq) + 2e-  → Cu(s)

      C.

    Ag+(aq) + e-  → Ag(s) 

      D.

    Ag(s)  → Ag+(aq) + e-

      E.

    Cu(s) + 2Ag+(aq)  → Cu2+(aq) + 2Ag(s)

     

     

     

    1. Copper is electroplated from a CuSO4 solution. A constant current of 4.54 A is applied by an external power supply. How long (minutes) will it take to deposit 0.985 g of Cu?

      (the answer should be entered with 3 significant figures; do not enter units; give answer in normal notation--examples include 1.23 and 120. and -123 and 123. and 12.3)

    Predict the sign of ΔSorxn (positive or negative) for the following reactions:

                                         

    CH3OH(l)  →  CH3OH(s)

                                         

    CH4(g) + H2O(g)  →  CO(g) + 3 H2(g)

                                         

    Na2CO3(s) + H2O(g) + CO2(g)  →  2 NaHCO3(s)

                                         

    methanol(g, 400 K)  →  methanol(g, 500 K)
