Question 1

For a particular battery based on one of the following reactions, E is expected to remain constant with time until the cell reactants are almost completely consumed. Which is the appropriate reaction?
◦ Zn(s) + Cu2+(aq) → Zn2+(aq) + Cu(s)
◦ 2 NiO(OH)(s) + Cd(s) + 2 H2O(l) → 2 Ni(OH)2(s) + Cd(OH)2(s)
◦ Pb(s) + PbO2(s) + 2 H+(aq) + 2 HSO4-(aq) → 2 PbSO4(s) + 2 H2O(l)
◦ Zn(s) + 2 MnO2(s) + 2 NH4+(aq) → 2 NH3(aq) + Mn2O3(s) + Zn2+(aq) + H2O(l)

Question 2

The cell reaction for a lead storage battery is:

Pb(s) + PbO2(s) + 2 H+(aq) + 2 HSO4-(aq) → 2 PbSO4(s) + 2 H2O(l)
E° = +1.92 V

To provide a potential of about 12 V, one could
◦ adjust the pH to 1.
◦ connect six cells in series.
◦ greatly increase the surface area of the Pb(s) and PbO2(s).
◦ adjust the pH to 12.

Did you know?

A serious new warning has been established for pregnant women against taking ACE inhibitors during pregnancy. In the study, the risk of major birth defects in children whose mothers took ACE inhibitors during the first trimester was nearly three times higher than in children whose mothers didn't take ACE inhibitors. Physicians can prescribe alternative medications for pregnant women who have symptoms of high blood pressure.

Did you know?

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has released reports detailing the deaths of infants (younger than 1 year of age) who died after being given cold and cough medications. This underscores the importance of educating parents that children younger than 2 years of age should never be given over-the-counter cold and cough medications without consulting their physicians.

Did you know?

Approximately 15–25% of recognized pregnancies end in miscarriage. However, many miscarriages often occur before a woman even knows she is pregnant.

Did you know?

Most fungi that pathogenically affect humans live in soil. If a person is not healthy, has an open wound, or is immunocompromised, a fungal infection can be very aggressive.

Did you know?

On average, someone in the United States has a stroke about every 40 seconds. This is about 795,000 people per year.
