Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 4

Question

Answer
  • Electrons are forced back into the metal to prevent corrosion
  • Metals are combined to form an alloy which forms an oxide layer
  • Metal is covered in a layer of a non-corrosive metal

Question 5

Question

Question 6

Question
Standard conditions for electrochemical reactions are: 25 degrees Celsius; [all ions] = 1M; P for all gases = 101.3kPa
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 7

Question
A negative Ecell value means that the reaction is spontaneous
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 8

Question
The higher the reduction potential, the more a metal will want to change into a solid state of matter
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 9

Question
If Cd and Fe reacted, what would the final reaction be, and what would the Ecell value be? [Cd(2+) + 2e- -> Cd = -0.40V] [Fe(2+) +2e- -> Fe = -0.45V]
Answer
  • Fe(2+)(aq) + Cd(s) -> Fe(s) + Cd(2+)(aq) = -0.05V
  • Fe(2+)(aq) + Cd(s) -> Fe(s) + Cd(2+)(aq) = +0.05V
  • Fe(s) + Cd(2+)(aq) -> Fe(2+)(aq) + Cd(s) = +0.05V
  • Fe(s) + Cd(2+)(aq) -> Fe(2+)(aq) + Cd(s) = -0.05V

Question 10

Question
Why doesn't aluminium (Al) corrode under standard conditions?
Answer
  • It forms an oxide layer of 2 aluminium atoms and 3 oxygen atoms
  • It has a negative oxidation potential and therefore does not corrode spontaneously
  • It forms an oxide layer of 1 aluminium atom and 1 oxygen atom

Question
Which of the following do not corrode spontaneously?
Answer
  • Iron (Fe)
  • Gold (Au)
  • Platinum (Pt)
  • Silver (Ag)
  • Zinc (Zn)
  • Copper (Cu)

Question 12

Question
