Consider a reaction where Ag is oxidized to Ag+ ions in a solution containing AgNO3. We set up an electrochemical cell with a Ag/Ag+ electrode as the anode and a platinum electrode as the cathode. The standard electrode potential for the Ag/Ag+ electrode is +0.80 V. What is the overpotential required to achieve a current of 2 A if the applied voltage is 1.00 V?

Consider a gas confined to a container that can be divided into two compartments of equal volume. If one compartment initially contains N1 identical molecules at energy E1 and the other compartment contains N2 identical molecules at energy E2, what is the probability that the molecules will eventually be distributed equally between the two compartments? Use statistical mechanics and thermodynamic ensembles to calculate this probability.

Consider a container separated into two compartments by a barrier. One compartment has a gas at a pressure of 1 atm and the other compartment is empty. The barrier has a small hole in it, which allows the gas to diffuse from one compartment to another. If the rate of diffusion of the gas is 0.2 mL/min and the molar mass of the gas is 28g/mol, what is the mass of gas transferred through the hole in 5 hours?
