Electrochemical Equilibria: Electrochemical CellsHydrogen fuel cells produce electricity by utilizing a redox reaction between hydrogen gasand oxygen gas without the need for combustion. Oxidation of hydrogen gas to waterhappens at the anode, while reduction of oxygen gas to hydroxide happens at the cathode.A certain hydrogen fuel cell consumes pure hydrogen at the anode side at 80 kPa and usesair at 1 bar as the oxygen source in the cathode side. This fuel cell operates at 30 oC.Assuming no side reactions due to the existence of nitrogen in the cathode, answer thefollowing:a) What is the overall reaction? How is the overall reaction it different fromhydrogen combustion?b) Determine the standard cell potential, Eocellc) Determine the actual cell potential, Ecelld) What can you say about the spontaneity of the actual fuel cell reaction at lowtemperatures? Will spontaneity decrease or increase at lower temperatures?
Copper has been used for thousands of years, either as a pure metal or in alloys. It is frequently used today in the production of wires and cables. Copper can be obtained through smelting or recycling. Determine the energy associated with each of these processes in order to recycle 1.00 mol Cu. The smelting of copper occurs by the balanced chemical equation:CuO(s)+CO(g)Cu(s)+CO2(g)where ΔH°f,CuO is = –155 kJ/mol. Assume the process of recycling copper is simplified to just the melting of the solid Cu starting at 25°C. The melting point of Cu is 1084.5°C with ΔH°fus = 13.0 kJ/mol and a molar heat capacity, cP,Cu = 24.5 J/mol·°C.

The mass of three different metal electrodes, each from a different galvanic cell, were determined before and after the current generated by the oxidation-reduction reaction in each cell was allowed to flow for a few minutes. The first metal electrode, given the label A, was found to have increased in mass; the second metal electrode, given the label B, did not change in mass; and the third metal electrode, given the label C, was found to have lost mass. Make an educated guess as to which electrodes were active and which were inert electrodes, and which were anode(s) and which were the cathode(s).
Zinc may be directly leached from zinc-lead sulphide concentrates by reaction with sulphuricPbS(s) + H2SO4 + 1 O2(g) → PbSO4(solid) + SÂ° + H2O 21ZnS(s) + H2SO4 + 2 O2(g) → ZnSO4(aq) + SÂ° + H2Oacid and oxygen. In addition, lead sulphide will be oxidized to give insoluble lead sulphate:Assume that a plant is to treat 400 t/day of concentrate containing 20.0 weight % Zn as ZnS and 110.0 weight % Pb and PbS. The concentrate and leach solution enters the leaching vessel at 32.0% solids. During the leach, 85.0% of the zinc is extracted and all the lead sulphide is oxidized.

From the thermodynamic data, ΔSsys for the given fuel cell reaction is negative but the reaction is still spontaneous. How can the negative entropy of the system be justified as spontaneous or is it simply violation of second law of thermodynamics?

Electrolysis of water or water splitting uses electric current to split water (H2O) to hydrogen gas (H2) and oxygen gas (O2). Although oxygen dissolves naturally when water comes in contact with air, it becomes a problem with polluted waters because dissolved oxygen is depleted there. This is the time where supply of dissolved oxygen from electrolysis would be of great help. On the other hand, hydrogen gas obtained from water splitting can be used as an alternative source of clean fuel. Since electrolysis uses electricity, do you think the extraction of hydrogen gas from water can be sustained? Yes or no? Why?
