Chapter 17, Problem 43E
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The oxidation half-cell reaction for the electrolytic cell that involves reaction Cl2(g)+2NaF(aq)2NaCl(aq)+F2(g) is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The conversion of chemical energy to electrical energy and vice versa is known as electrochemistry. In an electrochemical cell, two electrodes are connected by a wire and electrons are free to move between two compartments. Each compartment is known as a half-cell.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The reduction half-cell reaction for the electrolytic cell that involves reaction Cl2(g)+2NaF(aq)2NaCl(aq)+F2(g) is to be stated.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The anode and cathode for the electrolytic cell that involves reaction, Cl2(g)+2NaF(aq)2NaCl(aq)+F2(g) is to be identified.

Concept introduction:

The conversion of chemical energy to electrical energy and vice versa is known as electrochemistry. In an electrochemical cell, two electrodes are connected by a wire and electrons are free to move between two compartments. Each compartment is known as a half-cell.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

The direction of flow of electron for the electrolytic cell that involves reaction Cl2(g)+2NaF(aq)2NaCl(aq)+F2(g) is to be stated.

Concept introduction:
