Answer:
In the given chemical reaction:
Species Oxidized: I⁻
Species Reduced: Fe³⁺
Oxidizing agent: Fe³⁺
Reducing agent: I⁻
As the reaction proceeds, electrons are transferred from I⁻ to Fe³⁺
Explanation:
Redox reaction is a chemical reaction involving the simultaneous movement of electrons thereby causing oxidation of one species and reduction of the other species.
The chemical species that <u><em>gets reduced by gaining electrons </em></u><u>is called an </u><u><em>oxidizing agent</em></u>. Whereas, the chemical species that <u><em>gets oxidized by losing electrons </em></u><u>is called a </u><u><em>reducing agent</em></u><u>.</u>
Given redox reaction: 2Fe³⁺ + 2I⁻ → 2Fe²⁺ + I₂
<u>Oxidation half-reaction</u>: 2 I⁻ + → I₂ + 2 e⁻ ....(1)
<u>Reduction half-reaction</u>: [ Fe³⁺ + 1 e⁻ → Fe²⁺ ] × 2
⇒ 2 Fe³⁺ + 2 e⁻ → 2 Fe²⁺ ....(2)
In the given redox reaction, <u>Fe³⁺ (oxidation state +3) accepts electrons and gets reduced to Fe²⁺ (oxidation state +2) and I⁻ (oxidation state -1) loses electrons and gets oxidized to I₂ (oxidation state 0).</u>
<u>Therefore, Fe³⁺ is the oxidizing agent and I⁻ is the reducing agent and the electrons are transferred from I⁻ to Fe³⁺.</u>
Answer:
Ecell = +0.25V
Explanation:
the half-cell reactions for a voltanic cell
cathode(reduction): 2H⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ------- H₂(g)
anode(oxidation): 2AgCl(s) ------- 2Ag⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻ + 2e⁻
we have the standard cell potential E⁺cell = 0.18V at 80C respectively
Q = [H⁺]/[Cl⁻]
sub for [H+] = 0.10M and [Cl-] = 1.5M
Q= 0.1M/1.5M
Q = 0.067
Ecell = E⁺cell - 
logQ
= 0.18 - 
log 0.067
0.18- 0.059(-1.174)
Ecell = +0.25V
I'm pretty sure since one chemical can only bind with one other type, um, I think that one side of the DNA helicase helps make the other side?
