What are the drift speeds of Li+, Na+, and K+ in water when a potential difference of 10 V is applied across a 1.00 cm conductivity cell? How long would it take an ion to move from one electrode to the other? In conductivity measurements it is normal to use alternating current: what are the displacements of the ions in centimeters during a half cycle of 1.0 kHz applied potential.

Suppose you made a copper-nickel cell where the copper was the cathode and the nickel was the anode. You add a 0.5000 M solution of copper nitrate on the cathode side and a 3.000 M solution of nickel nitrate on the anode side. What is the voltage of the cell under these conditions? The units are volts and use at least 4 significant digits in the answer. The error interval is 0.02 V.

The piston cylinder contains 4 kg of saturated water vapor with 200 kPa. The heat is rejected from the water, and the piston moves from the stops when the pressure reaches 100 kPa. Then the heat is rejected until the total volume decrease to 30% from the initial volume. Determine the work done and heat transfer during this process, show the process on a P-V diagram.
