equilibrium, reversible, delta U

I thought that I heard from or read somewhere that equilibrium meant that the reaction was also reversible and so delta U was equal to 0. but apparently that's not true? So how would we know when a reaction is reversible (without the problem specifically saying so) and therefore when delta U=0? than...

Ron mispronounces the spell, causing his balloon to expand uncontrollably. The balloon starts at 3.3 L and room temperature (298) but ends up at a whopping 9.2x10^5 L and 333K, forcing the entire class to flee the classroom. Calculate deltaS for Ron's balloon. Assume that Helium in the balloon is a ...

2014 midterm #8

The question reads:
Using standard cell potentials:
F2+2H++2e--->2HF E=3.03V
F2+2e--->2F- E=2.87

How do we know which one will be the anode and which one will be the cathode, so we know which equation to flip?

question asks to calculate the Ka for HF.

Thank you!

I ended up with -113.8kJ and then divided by 2 to get -56.9kJ/mol. But this part was marked wrong, and apparently -113.8kJ is correct. Why am I...

order of galvanic cell

How do we tell which are the reactants and products in a galvanic cell? is there a particular order?
For example,
C(gr)|H2(g)||H+(aq)||Cl-(aq)|Cl2(g)|Pt(s)
is products to reactants from inward to outward, or left to right?

Thank you!

Is it more accurate to draw the Lewis structure of H3PO4 with ionic bonds since PO4^3- is a polyatomic ion, or better to draw it with covalent bonds? https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t34.0-12/14798839_1011685678943703_1963603948_n.jpg?oh=24008ab39260f8109db496b0484e25fb&oe=580D1151 Thank you!
