A voltaic cell has a zinc anode and a copper cathode. They are connected by a wire but no salt bridge. What can you predict will happen? A. Without a salt bridge to slow it down the reaction will occur faster than normal. B. The electrons will flow to the zinc anode where a negative charge will build up and eventually halt the reaction. C. None of these D. The electrons will flow to the copper cathode where a negative charge will build up and eventually halt the reaction.

Explanation:

the link still does not work even when adding it to the url bar

explanation:

answer : third trial had the contaminated sample and the correct value for dhrxn should be 1000 kj/mol

explanation :

let us write down the given equations

equation 1 :

equation 2 :

equation 3 :

let us use hess's law to find out which 2 equations can be added to get the third equation.

let us reverse equation 2 and multiply it by 2. the new equation that we get is,

equation 4 :

let us add equation 1 & 4

the above equation is similar to equation 3 but has different value for dhrxn.

therefore third trial had the contaminated sample and the correct value for dhrxn should be 1000 kj/mol
