A student is given a standard galvanic cell, represented above, that has a Cu electrode and a Sn electrode. As current flows through the cell, the student determines that the Cu electrode increases in mass and the Sn electrode decreases in mass. Identify the electrode at which oxidation is occuring. Explain your reasoning based on the student's observations.

Since the Sn electrode is losing mass, Sn atoms must be forming Sn 2+ (aq). This is oxidation. OR Because the cell operates, Eo must be positive, and based on the Eo values from the table, it must be Sn that is oxidized.

Both the standard and nonstandard cells can be used to power an electronic device. Would the nonstandard cell power the device for the same time, a longer time, or a shorter time as compared with the standard cell? Justify your answer.

The nonstandard cell would power the device for a shorter time because the supply of Cu 2+ would be exhausted more quickly. OR the nonstandard cell would power the device for a shorter time because the reaction will reach E = 0 more quickly.

Which of the following best describes what happens to the pH of the H2O2 solution as the titration proceeds?

As H+ ions are consumed, the solution becomes less acidic and the pH increases.

Using information from the table above, write a net-ionic equation for the reaction between the Sn electrode and the Cu(NO3)2 solution that would be thermodynamically favorable. Justify that the reaction is thermodynamically favorable.

Cu 2+ + Sn (s) → Cu (s) + Sn 2+ Eo is positive (0.34 V + 0.14 V = 0.48 V), therefore the reaction is thermodynamically favorable. OR The cell observations from earlier parts of the question are evidence that the Sn is oxidized and Cu is reduced, therefore Eo must be positive.

The student is asked to redesign the experiment to determine the concentration of a butanoic acid solution instead of a propanoic acid solution. For butanoic acid the value of pKa is 4.83. The stuent claims that a different indicator will be required to determine the equivalence point of the titration accurately. Based on your response in #55, do you agree with the student's claim? Justify your answer.

Disagree with the student's claim. From above, pKa for propanoic acid is log (1.3 x 10 -5) = 4.89. Because 4.83 is so close to 4.89, the pH at the equivalence point in the titration of butanoic acid should be close enough to the pH in the titration of propanoic acid to make the original indicator appropriate for the titration of butanoic acid.

False. The conjugate base of a weak acid undergoes hydrolysis at equivalence to form a solution with a pH >7. hydrolysis: CH3CH2COO- + H3O+ ⬄ CH3CH2COOH + OH-

In both experiments it was observed that the measured final temperature of the water was less than the final temperature calculated in problem 46. Identify one source of experimental error that might account for this discrepancy and explain why the error would make the measured final temperature of the water lower than predicted.

Heat is lost to the environment. The T of the water is lower because less heat is transferred to the water. OR Heat is transferred to the can or thermometer. The T of the water is lower because less heat is transferred ot the water. OR Incomplete combustion of the lauric acid. The temperature of the water is lower because less heat was released from the combustion reaction.

Which compound, lauric acid or sucrose, is more soluble in water? Justify your answer in terms of the intermolecular forces present between water and each of the compounds

Sucrose is more soluble than lauric acid. Stronger interactions occur between sucrose and water molecules due to a greater capacity for hydrogen bonding as a result of a larger number of -OH groups in sucrose. Although lauric acid molecules have one site for hydrogen bonding, the long hydrocarbon chain causes London dispersion forces to be the predominant, yet weaker, interaction with water molecules.

The experiment described above is repeated using a 1.5 g sample of sucrose. The combustion reaction for sucrose in air is represented below. C12H22O11 (s) + 12 O2 (g) → 12 CO2 (g) + 11 H2O (g) Even though ΔGo for the combustion of sucrose in air has a value of -5837 kJ/mol rxn, the combustion reaction does not take place unless it is ignited. Explain.

The reaction has a high activation energy. The ignition source provides energy to the molecules; some of them can then overcome the activation energy barrier. The reaction is exothermic, so the heat released allows the reaction to continue.

Determine if it is true or false and support your answer. If the pH of a hydrochloric acid solution is the same as the pH of a propanoic acid solution, then the molar concentration of the hydrochloric acid solution must be less than the molar concentration of the propanoic acid solution.

In an attempt to determine ΔH combustion of lauric acid experimentally, a student places a 1.5 g sample of lauric acid in a ceramic dish underneath a can made of Al containing 325 g of water at 25oC. The student ignites the sample of lauric acid with a match and records the highest temperature reached by the water in the can. The experiment is repeated using a can of the same mass, but this time the can is made of Cu. The specific heat of Cu is 0.39 J/gK, and the specific heat of Al is 0.90 J/gK. Will the final temperature of the water in the can made of Cu be greater than, less than, or equal to the final temperature of the water in the can made of Al? Justify your answer.

the temperature will be greater in the can made of Cu. since Cu has a lower specific heat than al, more heat will be absorbed by the water in the Cu can than in the water of the Al can.
