An electrochemical cell is composed of pure nickel and pure iron electrodes immersed in solutions of their divalent ions at room temperature (25°C). If the concentrations of Ni2+ and Fe2+ ions are 0.002 M and 0.40 M, respectively, what voltage is generated at 25°C? (The respective standard reduction potentials for Ni and Fe are −0.250 V and −0.440 V.)

0.758 V.

Hello!

In this case, case when we include the effect of concentration on an electrochemical cell, we need to consider the Nerst equation at 25 °C:

Whereas n stands for the number of moles of transferred electrons and Q the reaction quotient relating the concentration of the oxidized species over the concentration of the reduced species. In such a way, we can write the undergoing half-reactions in the cell, considering the iron's one is reversed because it has the most positive standard potential so it tends to reduction:

It means that the concentration of the oxidized species is 0.002 M (that of nickel), that of the reduced species is 0.40 M and there are two moles of transferred electrons; therefore, the generated potential turns out:

question: ray weighs 100 kilograms, his wrestling partner, bobby, weighs 50 kilograms. if ray moves at 4 m s , how fast will bobby have to run at him to apply an equal amount of kinetic energy?

answer: 8 m/s he needs to run twice as fast to keep up so he has some work to do

explanation:   if the mass has units of kilograms and the velocity of meters per second, the kinetic energy has units of kilograms-meters squared per second squared.
