1.Use the activity series from your text to determine whether tin will dissolve in a 1.0M acid solution (a solution of H+ ions) according to the following equation. Explain your answer. Sn(s) + 2H+ (aq) J Sn+2(aq) + H2(g)
2. Would a battery constructed of tin (Sn/Sn+2) and lead (Pb/Pb+2) be of much value? Why or why not? Hint: calculate the reduction potential for the battery.
3. Martin Smythe constructed a potato battery by inserting strips of copper and zinc into a potato. The metal strips were attached to the electrical leads of a clock. What is the voltage produced by the battery?
4. What is the purpose of the potato in question 3?
