In a voltaic cell made of a Ag strip and an Al strip immersed in 1.0 M aqueous AgNO_3 and Al(NO_3)_3 solutions, respectively, with all other cell components in place, the Al strip is oxidized, thereby losing mass as the voltaic cell operates. What is the primary reason the Al strip loses mass

When the operation of the voltaic cell, which is formed of an aluminum and silver strip takes place, the atom of aluminum loses three of its electrons and the Al3+ formed moves within the solution. The Al3+ ion gets dissolved within the solution and the electrons lost in the process moves through the wire and get acquired by the ions of silver, which then get reduced to solid Ag resulting in the mass gain of silver strip.

both adhesion and cohesion are attractions.

they are different in that adhesion is the force of attraction between the molecules of two different substances, whereas cohesion is the force of attraction between molecules of the same substance.

possible examples include capillary action, in which the adhesion between water and glass causes the water to rise in a narrow tube against the force of gravity.

because of hydrogen bonding, water is extremely cohesive.

this causes molecules on the surface of water to be drawn inward, which is why drops of water form beads on smooth surfaces.

hope this .

answer:

the reaction is type of combination reaction.

explanation:

on the product side, there are 2 molecules of bonded to fe   which means one atom of fe are combined two molecules of . so, balanced chemical equation becomes :

this reaction follows the reaction type of combination reaction. a combination reaction is defined as chemical reaction in which reactants combines together to form a single product.
