What is the role of a salt bridge in a daniel cell?
If solid A^(+)B^(-) having ZnS Structure is heated so that the ions along two of the axis passing through the face center particles are lost and bivalent ion (Z) enters here to maintain the electrical neutrality,so that new formula unit becomes A_(x)B_(y)Z_(c) Report the value of x+y+c
Which of the following statemetns are NOT the functions of the commutator in a D . C Motor ? a) To reverse the direction of the flow of current in the coil at every half rotation. b) To reverse the voltage in the coil at every half rotation. c) to enable the coil to be in electrical contact with the carbon brushes.
The discharging current in the atmosphere due to the small conductivity of air is known to be 1800 A on an average over the globe . Why then does the atmosphere not discharge it self completely in due course and becomed electrically neutral ? In other words, what keeps the atmosphere charged?
Answer carefully: (a) Two large conducting spheres carrying charges Q_(1) and Q_(2) are brought close to each other. Is the magnitude of electrostatic force between them exactly given by Q_(1),Q_(2)//4pi epsilon_(0)r^(2) , where r is the distance between their centres? (b) If Coulomb’s law involved 1//r^(3) dependence (instead of would Gauss’s law be still true ? (c) A small test charge is released at rest at a point in an electrostatic field configuration. Will it travel along the field line passing through that point? (d) What is the work done by the field of a nucleus in a complete circular orbit of the electron? What if the orbit is elliptical? (e) We know that electric field is discontinuous across the surface of a charged conductor. Is electric potential also discontinuous there? (f) What meaning would you give to the capacitance of a single conductor? (g) Guess a possible reason why water has a much greater dielectric constant (= 80) than say, mica (= 6).
hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell may have an acidic or alkaline electrolyte. The half-cell reactions are To maximize the power per unit mass of an electrochemical cell, the electronic and electrolytic resistances of the cell must be minimized. Since fused salts have lower electrolytic resistances that aqueous solutions, high-temperature electrochemical cells are of special interest for practical applications. High temperature also allow the use of liquid metal electrode, which make possible higher current densities than solid electrodes If 560 mL of H_2 gas at STP is fed into and is consumed by the fuel cell in 10 minutes, then what is the current output of the fuel cell?
