The anode is the electrode where the oxidation occurs.
Cathode is the electrode where the reducction occurs.
Equations:
Mn(2+) + 2e- ---> Mn(s) Eo = - 1.18 V
2Fe(3+) + 2e- ----> 2 Fe(2+) 2Eo = + 1.54 V
The electrons flow from the electrode with the lower Eo to the electrode with the higher Eo yielding to a positive voltage.
Eo = 1.54 V - (- 1.18) = 1.54 + 1.18 = 2.72
Answer: 2.72 V
Oxidation is when the overall charge (or oxidation number) increases. The only way to increase an oxidation number is to lose an electron, thereby making the negative charges less. The correct answer is C.
Answer:
Therefore, the rate of change in the amount of salt is 
Explanation:
Given:
Initial volume of water 
lit
Flowing rate = 5 
The rate of change in the amount of salt is given by,
( Rate of salt enters tank - rate of sat leaves tank )
Since tank is initially filled with water so we write that,
Let amount of salt in the solution is 
,
Therefore, the rate of change in the amount of salt is
Answer:
<em>A not reasonable explanation for an aerospace engineer designs a rocket to have three stages is</em>:
- <u><em>A. To simplify the design of the rocket</em></u>
Explanation:
A <em>three stages rocket</em> permits to separate the fuel compartments. The rocket must be launched with a huge amount of fuel to last the entire travel. Then the initial mass of the rocket and the fuel is considerably large.
As the rocket flies, part of the fuel is consumed and so some compartements may be separated and removed decreasing the mass of the rocket as it flies (<em>option D. </em>is a reasonable explanation), so the rocket only carries the necessary mass (<em>statement B</em>. is a reasonable explanation).
As the rocket moves away from Earth, the gravitational force decreases and, in the space, the amount of thrust needed is lesser, which the aerospace engineers take into account for the design (choice C. is a reasonable explanation).
The only <em>not reasonable explanation to design a three stage rocket</em> is to <em>simplify the design of the rocket</em>: designing a rocket with three modules each with different features, functions, and the detachment mechanisms brings lot of complex problems to solve. So, o<em>ption A. </em>is the correct answer.
