the least negative one goes fwd as it is more "feasible" than the more negative one.

Another way of remembering :

(the more reactive the metal is , the more stable it is in the ionic form)

the one that has the lower electrode potential value is more reactive - so it prefers to remain in the ionic form.


Therefore it will not reduce from +2 or +3 (or any positive value) to zero.

ok so here i have a chemistry p5 question 2 ....... so dont skip this question i really need the answer!!!!
http://www.xtremepapers.com/papers/CIE/Cambridge International A and AS Level/Chemistry (9701)/9701_s08_qp_5.pdf
so in Q2 part (f) they asked to draw construction lines
so can you tell me what these construction lines are and how to make them on the graph ????

I just quoted a graph from Google. Construction lines are lines which i have denoted by thick dotted lines. These enables you to read the variable (y-axis value if u wish) at a particular point (the x axis value). Hope this helped & Good luck. :)
P.S the exception here is that in Paper 5 you'll have to draw these lines on a Grid (Graph paper). Here, its a blank space on the background.

A solution contains 50.0 g dm–3 of the chloride of an alkaline earth metal; To 25.0 cm3
of this solution was added an excess of aqueous silver nitrate; 3.77 g of silver chloride,
AgCl, was precipitated. Calculate the value of the relative atomic mass of the metal and
suggest its identity.
(XCI2 + 2AgNO3 → X(NO3)2 + 2AgCI)
number of moles AgCI )1(
143 5.
77.3
= 0.0263 ⇒ 0.0131 mol XCI2 (1)
Mr(XCI2) = 25/1000 × 50 (1) = 95.2 –71 = 24.2 (1)
0.0131 (1)
why do we need the 0.0131 .. if they found the mass number by subtractin ??


HELPPPP !!!!!

hello i need some help
i am in a bit of a hard situation here
i live in jeddah
my chemistry teacher is not good and i dont know any good tution over here or the ones that have there name going for them is too expensive.
my AS result was not really good....(bellow C)
my parents are now asking me to move to Pakistan to some private academy and study for AL there
i am really confused what to do and will i even get any admission there in the first place and how do i know that the teachers there are good enough......

Lol have patience! The part where you said "25/1000 × 50" you have to divide that by 0.0131 to get 95.4, which you later subtract 71 from to get the Mr of the earth metal. You have to do that because by doing 25/1000 × 50 you are finding the mass, in grams, so to find the Mr you would then divide by no. of moles right? I hope you get it...

Lol you see you need to relax, maybe then you will remember! :p 0.0131 is the moles of XCI2, which we found by first calculating moles of AgCI, which is (3.77(the mass))/(143.5(Mr)) = 0.0263 mol. Then isn't it using molar ratio we get the ratio XCI2 : AgCI, which is 1:2 from the formula, so moles of XCI2 is 0.0263/2 = 0.0131. Simple :)
