Q

when theres no solid,, only ions,, how do u write the cell notation

A

highest oxidation state, lower oxidation state | Pt(s)

we can use Pt bc its inert!!

Q

how to balance

A

balance core element
then oxygens
then hydrogens
then charges

then to combine make sure e- cancel out <3

Q

how to balance under basic conditions

A

do it in acidic ones,, then add X OH to match XH+ to both sides

which turns it into H2O
which u then cancel from both sides

then make sure the charges are equal!!

make sure u add OH- to both sides tho <3

Q

what happens when u increase conc of a reactant

A

more products form

reaction becomes more spontaneous in the forward reaction

more positive Ecell,, CELL POTENTIAL GOES UP!!! more positive = larger number

Q

what happens if u decrease the concentration of the reactants

A

backward reaction occurs to oppose the lower concentration.

backward reaction becomes spontaneous

Ecell gets more negative
forward reaction is less spontaneous

CELL POTENTIAL GOES DOWN,, less positive
smaller Ecell

Q

increase product concentration

A

backward reaction is favoured

forward reaction is less spontaneous. backward reaction is spontaneous. reactants are favoured

Ecell gets smaller!!!

Q

decrease product concentration

A

forward reaction is favoured as le chatliers principle explains how more products will be formed to oppose the lower conc. this means the forward reaction is favoured and more spontaneous

this makes Ecell larger!! due to larger Q, making E larger

22
Q

how do u increase the cell potential

A

products need to be larger : nominator for Q.

aka formward dreaction must be favoured

aka decrease products
aka increase reactants

23
Q

how do u decrease cell potential

A

reactants need to be larger (denominator)
aka increase product conc
aka lower reactant conc

24
Q

when is Ecell greater than E*cell

A

low product conc
high rea conc

25
Q

when is Ecell smaller than E*cell

A

increase pro conc
decrease rea conc

26
Q

what is Q girl

A

reaction quotient

basically K ,, but not during equilibrium

conc of pro / conc of rea

POWER OF STOICHIOMETRY!!

only aq allowed ,, no solids

27
Q

E cell =

A

cathode - (-anode)

cathode + correct anode

28
Q

anode and its mass

A

loses it

X(s) -> 2e- + X(aq)

29
Q

cathode and its mass

A

gains it

X(aq) + 2e- -> X(s)

30
Q

in salt bridge,, anions flow towards the

A

anode

31
Q

in salt bridge cations flow towards the

A

cathode

32
Q

what does the salt bridge do

A

prevents the build up of charge

keeps the solutions equal

Zn2+ goes to cathode (cation) bc that side is gaining e- and getting more negative

SO4 2- goes to anode (anion) bc that side is losing e- and getting more positive

33
Q

no salt bridge

A

equilibrium will occur

e- would start going back to anode

34
Q

what is voltage

A

the potential difference between 2 points

35
Q

current equation

A

current = charge / seconds

amp = 1c / second

c = coloumb of charge

36
Q

C is

A

coloumb
charge

37
Q

J is

A

energy
work

38
Q

1 volt =

A

1J / 1C

39
Q

i = Q / t

A

current (amps) = charge (coloumb) / second

40
Q

when a battery has a positive cell potential,, Ecell,, what can occur

A

spontaneous reaction
meaning charge is created
work can be done to power things

aka light a light bulb etc

when Ecell = 0.00V,, the cell is dead,, u need a new bettery

41
Q

what do we need to add to a cell notation

A

states and concentration and pressure!! pressure in atm

42
Q

cell notation conc and pressure when not given

A

conc = 1M
pressure = 1atm

43
Q

rate constant,, K,, at equilibrium

A

1

44
Q

why do cations travel towards the cathode

A

attracted to the e- flowing to the cathode

45
Q

Zn and Cu in

A

ZnSO4
CuSO4

46
Q

Al and Co in

A

AlCl3

CoCl3 // CoCl2 depending on the ions (both 1M)

47
Q

maximum amount of work that can be done =

A

DELTA G

48
Q

can u multiply gibbs to get diff answers

A

yes

49
Q

can u multiply Ecell to get diff answers

A

nope
