--- Quote from: "ezflow" ---Coblin you are my hero :)
Can you send me photos of you so I can put them up around my room and worship you?
No, seriously, thanks so much for doing this.

Don't forget. We have to thank asa.hoshi for the quick supply of the paper. I want to ask though, was there any information omitted from Q15 and 16 of the multi-choice? My reasoning is deductive rather than constructive. I've only eliminated instead of actually figured out the answer.
Thanks asa.hoshi!

lol sorry. there is some info. i remember typing it up. but somehow it got deleted. i type it up again. here ya go!
Questions 15 and 16 refer to the following information.
A rechargeable cell, used in laptop computers, contains a metal allow (designated M) which has hydrogen atoms adsorbed on its surface. and nickel in the form of NiO(OH) (s) and Ni(OH)2(s).
The half reactants, written as reduction reactions, are
H2O(l) + e- <--> H (adsorbed on M) + OH-(aq)
NiO(OH)(s) + H2O(l) + e- <--> Ni(OH)2(s) + OH-(aq)
While this cell is generating electricity, the metal alloy acts as the negative electrode.
Question 15
When this cell is generating electricity
A. NiO(OH) acts as the oxidant
B. the concentration of OH-ions in the cell increases as the cell discharges
C. OH- ions produced at the negative electrode migrate to the positive electrode.
D. electrons flow in the external circuit from the positive to the negative electrode.
Question 16
When the cell is recharged, which one of the following precesses occurs at the electrode connected to the positive terminal of the external power source?
A. reduction of H2O(l)
B. reduction of NiO(OH)(s)
C. oxidation of Ni(OH)2(s)
D. oxidation of H (adsorbed on M)

Alright, cool :D
Thanks again!
