What is the potential of a cell made up of Zn|Zn2+ and Cu|Cu2+ half-cells at 25o C if [Zn2+] = 0.25 M and [Cu2+] = 0.15 M?

(Answer should be E = +1.09 V but I need to know how to get to that)

A sample mixture of ethyl benzoate (bp 212 C) and dodecane (bp 216.2 C) is injected on two GC columns. Column A has DC710 silicone oil as the stationary phase, and column B uses polyethylene glycol as the stationary phase. Which substance would be certain to elute first from column A and would the same material be expected to elute first from column B? Which column, A or B, would be expected to give the better separation of these two substances?

A gaseous sample of a certain compound follows the postulates of the kinetic molecular theory and has a most probable speed pf 264.13 m/s at a certain temperature.

A) The molecules in this sample are a binary compound of sulfur and nitrogen that is 30.4 mass percent nitrogen. The molar mass of this compound is between one hundred fifty and two hundred g/mole. Determine the molecular formula of this compound and the temperature of this sample in degrees Celsius.

B) This gaseous sample, at the above temperature, is in a 5.00 L container at a pressure of 280 torr. Determine the collision frequency of these molecules with a 2.00 mm2 area of the container wall. Express your answer in moles/second.

Carbonyl fluoride, COF2, is an important intermediate used in the production of fluorine-containing compounds. For instance, it is used to make the refrigerant carbon tetrafluoride, CF4 via the reaction

2COF2(g)⇌CO2(g)+CF4(g),    Kc=7.40

If only COF2 is present initially at a concentration of 2.00 M, what concentration of COF2 remains at equilibrium?

Where I get stuck is figuring out how to multiply (x)(x)/ (2.00-2x)^2 I know this is easy math but can you please work it out step for step so that I can see exactly how you go the answer.

particles undergoing diffusion move a few millimeters per hour. In reality, particles are traveling around 500 m/s. The slow overall movement is because they collide with other particles very frequently. (density of water =1000 kg/m^3, Avogadro's # = 6.022x10^23 particles/mole, mass of the earth =5.97 x10^24 kg) using Xrms = sqrt(2Dt)

a. Estimate how far a water molecule travels before colliding with another water molecule.

b. How much time is in between each collision?

c. How many collisions occur for a molecule that diffuses 1 mm in 1 hour? d. Use your estimates from a, b, and c to figure out how many times a water molecule moves away from its starting point and how many times it moves towards it to end up 1 mm away after 1 hour.

Suppose two blocks of iron, each having 1 mol of iron atoms, are at differing temperatures and are then brought together in an otherwise isolated system. One of the blocks is at 273.15 K and the other is at 373.15 K and the process is carried out at 1 bar pressure.

a.) Would you expect ∆Ssys < 0, ∆Ssys = 0, ∆Ssys > 0 ?

b.) Using common sense and high school physics (and perhaps the First Law), what is the common final temperature of the two blocks?

c.) Calculate ∆Ssys for the process (use Table 4.1 for any needed molar heat capacities needed, and assume that the molar heat capacities are independent of T).

d.) What is q for the isolated system? How does this value of q and the result of part C relate to the Clausius inequality: final initial d q S T − ∆ ≥ ∫ ?

e.) Interpret this change in entropy in terms of the ordering-disordering effects involved in the transfer of given amount of heat from a block at higher temperature to one at a lower temperature (i.e. the disordering effect of adding a given q to the cooler block vs the ordering effect of removing the same q from the hotter block).

Molar heat capacity of Fe(s) ==> Cp,m (J / mol*K) = 25.1
