The first period of “Reconstruction” was

We can use Ered and Eox values to determine whether a complex redox reaction will go spontaneously, even if the reaction is not setup as part of a voltaic cell. Is the following complex redox reaction spontaneous or not, i.e, will it “go” as written? You don’t need to understand the details of the reaction to solve this problem, you just need to know how to determine Ecell. 4 Ag(s)  +  O2(g)  +  4H+(aq)   →   4 Ag+(aq)  +  2 H2O(l) Use the following half reaction reduction potential data to calculate Ecell to answer this question. This time you will need to obtained Eox by reversing one of the Ered. O2(g)  +  4H+(aq)  +  4e-   →  2 H2O(l)         Ered = +1.23 V 4 Ag+(aq)  +  4e-     →  4 Ag(s)                      Ered = +0.80 V Note that the equation ignores the fact that in water H+ is really H3O+

How many neutrons does the 13C isotope (carbon-13) of carbon have?  

Electron waves are what are called standing waves. Standing waves have a specific property that not just any wave is allowed. This is why only certain atomic orbital with specific energies are allowed to exist in an atom. The vibrations of a guitar string are also standing waves, only certain waves are allowed. In the diagram below, one of the waves is not allowed, if it were an atomic orbital, it would not exist, Which is it?

Estimate the probability of the event.Of 1,966 people who came into a blood bank to give blood, 337 people had high blood pressure. Estimate the probability that the next person who comes in to give blood will have high blood pressure.

Consider the following probability. P(−2.5 ≤ z ≤ 1) Shade the area under the standard normal curve corresponding to the probability above. FIG. 1 FIG. 2 FIG. 3 FIG. 4 FIG. 5

Which of the following was a graduate from West Point Military Academy:  

How many moles of CuO can be produced from  2.25 mol of Cu2O in the following reaction?                         2 Cu2O(s) + O2(g) → 4 CuO(s)
