In theory, most metals should easily corrode in air. Why? A group of metals called the noble metals are relatively difficult to corrode in air. Some noble metals include gold, platinum, and silver. Reference Table 17-1 to come up with a possible reason why the noble metals are relatively difficult to corrode.
When jump-starting a car with a dead battery, the ground jumper should be attached to a remote part of the engine block. Why?
The Ostwald process for the commercial production of nitric acid involves the following three steps: 4NH3(g)+5O2(g)4NO(g)+6H2O(g) 2NO(g)+O2(g)2NO2(g) 3NO2(g)+H2O(l)2HNO3,(aq)+NO(g) a. Which reactions in the Ostwald process are oxidationreduction reactions? b. Identify each oxidizing agent and reducing agent.
Atomic masses can be determined by electrolysis. In one hour, a current of 0.600 A deposits 2.42 g of a certain metal, M, which is present in solution as M+ ions. What is the atomic mass of the metal?
Consider the following galvanic cell: a. Label the reducing agent and the oxidizing agent, and describe the direction of the electron flow. b. Determine the standard cell potential. c. Which electrode increases in mass as the reaction proceeds, and which electrode decreases in mass?
Specify which of the following equations represent oxidation reduction reactions, and indicate the oxidizing agent, the reducing agent, the species being oxidized, and the species being reduced. a. CH4(g)+H2O(g)CO(g)+3H2(g) b. 2AgNO3(aq)+Cu(s)Cu(NO3)2(aq)+2Ag(s) c. Zn(s)+2HCl(aq)ZnCl2(aq)+H2(g) d. 2H+(aq)+2CrO42-(aq)Cr2O72-(aq)+H2O(l)
An active (metal) electrode was found to gain mass as the oxidation-reduction reaction was allowed to proceed. Was the electrode part of the anode or cathode? Explain.
Glucose is the major fuel for most living cells. The oxidative breakdown of glucose by our body to produce energy is called respiration. The reaction for the complete combustion of glucose is C6H12O6(s)+6O2(g)6CO2(g)+6H2O(l) If this combustion reaction could be harnessed as a fuel cell, calculate the theoretical voltage that could be produced at standard conditions. (Hint: Use Gf values from Appendix 4.)
The iron content of hemoglobin is determined by destroying the hemoglobin molecule and producing small water-soluble ions and molecules. The iron in the aqueous solution is reduced to iron(II) ion and then titrated against potassium permanganate. In the titration, iron(ll) is oxidized to iron(III) and permanganate is reduced to manganese(II) ion. A 5.00-g sample of hemoglobin requires 32.3 mL of a 0.002100 M solution of potassium permanganate. The reaction with permanganate ion is MnO4(aq)+8H+(aq)+5Fe2+(aq)Mn2+(aq)+5Fe3+(aq)+4H2O What is the mass percent of iron in hemoglobin?
