Explanation / Answer

1. The cell diagram is a shorthand notation to represent the redox reactions of an electrical cell.

2.A double vertical line (||) is used to separate the anode half reaction from the cathode half reaction. This represents the salt bridge.

3.The anode (where oxidation occurs) is placed on the left side of the ||.

4.The cathode (where reduction occurs) is placed on the right side of the ||.

5.A single vertical line (|) is used to separate different states of matter on the same side, and a comma is used to separate like states of matter on the same side.

20. Pb(s) + I2(aq) ------> PbI2(s) is the net balanced equation.

option b.

Oxidation: Pb(s) ---------> Pb+2 (aq) +2e-

Reduction: I2(aq) + 2e- -------------> 2I- (aq)

Net: Pb(s) + I2(aq) ------> PbI2(s)

21. SOLUTION

Oxidation: {Al(s) Al3+(aq) +3e-} x 2

Reduction: {Zn2+(aq) +2e- Zn(s)} x 3

Net: 2Al(s) + 3Zn2+(aq) 2Al3+(aq) + 3Zn(s)

22. Oxidation: Fe+2 (aq) -----------> Fe+3 (aq) +e-

Reduction: AgCl(s) + e- ---------------------> Ag(s) + Cl- (aq)

Net: AgCl(s) + Fe+2 (aq) --------------> Ag(s) + Cl- (aq) + Fe+3 (aq)

23.Oxidation:Cu (s) --> Cu2+(aq) + 2 e-

Reduction: Hg2Cl2(s) + 2e- -----------> 2Hg (l) + 2Cl-(aq)

Net: Hg2Cl2(s) + Cu (s) ---------------> Cu2+(aq) + 2Hg (l) + 2Cl-(aq)

24. The anode (where oxidation occurs) is placed on the left side of the ||.

The cathode (where reduction occurs) is placed on the right side of the ||.

A single vertical line (|) is used to separate different states of matter on the same side, and a comma is used to separate like states of matter on the same side.

Ni/Ni+2 // Cd+2/Cd is the answer.

Because Ni is undergoing oxidation and Cadmium is undergoing reduction.
