Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is 2Cr3+(aq) + Pb(s)>2Cr2+(aq) + Pb2+(aq)

A total of two moles of electrons were transferred in the process. The chromium was reduced while the lead was oxidized. Hence the lead species will constitute the oxidation half equation and the chromium will constitute the reduction half equation.

E°cell = E°cathode - E°anode

E°cathode = -0.41 V

E°anode = -0.13 V

E°cell = -0.41 -(-0.13) = -0.28 V

From

E°cell = 0.0592/n log K

n= 2, K= the unknown

-0.28 = 0.0592/2 log K

log K = -0.28/0.0296

log K = -9.4595

K = Antilog ( -9.4595)

K= 3.47 ×10^-10

h let me think

a. a clone will be physically identical to the original, but won’t be genetically identical

have a good day!
