For each of the following pairs of half-cells, write the overall reaction and the cell notation. Assume the first half-cell given in each pair is the cathodic half-cell. a. Ag/Ag, Co2 /Co b. Au/Au, Zn2 /Zn c. HgiHg, V/K
Chapter 7: A Field Guide to Chemical Reactions This chapter directs its focus towards examining what a chemical reaction is, which processes are not chemical reactions, how chemical reactions occur, and how they’re characterized. Most chemical reactions fall into a limited number of basic types. Two most common types: acidbase (aka nucleophile/ electrophile) oxidationreduction Each reaction differs in its specific molecules & conditions (e.g., temperature, solvent etc.) Reactions are systems composed of reactants, products, and the environment in which the reaction occurs. Reactants behave quite differently in the gas phase than in an aqueous or nonaqueous system. High or low temperatures also affect behavior. 7.1 Collisi
