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?

As many as 28% of hospitalized patients requiring mechanical ventilators to help them breathe (for more than 48 hours) will develop ventilator-associated pneumonia. Current therapy involves intravenous antibiotics, but new antibiotics that can be inhaled (and more directly treat the infection) are being developed.

Did you know?

The horizontal fraction bar was introduced by the Arabs.
