Explain why sodium chloride solution cannot be used as the electrolyte to produce

Chemistry
1 answer:
ira [324]2 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

Because the solution only contains Na+ and Cl− ions, and water, and not the metal Na(s) . You cannot evaporate the water from the solution and hope to obtain anything but NaCl(s) .

.

Na(s) has an electron configuration of 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^1 , but Na+(aq) has an electron configuration of 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 . That means they are not the same element, and thus, there is no straightforward way of extracting Na(s) from a NaCl (aq) solution

How do you determine valence electrons of a metal? A non Metal?
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Check the electronic configuration of elements.

Explanation:

▪Valence electrons are the elwctrons present in the outermost shell of any element.

For example,

Electronic Configuration of Sodium = 2,8,1

Here , Sodium has 1 valence electrons.

▪Valency of an element is the total no. of electrons to be gained/losed in order to achieve duplet/octate state.

For example,

Electronic configuration of Sodium = 2,8,1

Sodium can achieve octate state either by losing 1 electron or gaining 7 electrons. But losing 1 electron is eay than gaining 7 electrons. So Valency of Sodium = +1

☆Metals have 1 or 2 or 3 valence electrons.

☆Non metals have 4 or 5 or 6 or 7 valence electrons.

☆Noble gases tend to stay in duplet/octate state i.e they have 2 or 8 valence electrons.

Which process contributes to the formation of tornados?
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Warm air rises, resulting in a decrease air pressure.

Explanation:

Tornado is the rapid and violent rotation of column of air which move from the thunderstorm to the ground.

It is formed when there is collision between warm and cold air. The cold air which is more sense than the warm air is pushed over the warm air which result in thunderstorms. The warm air then rises which result in decrease air pressure causing an updraft. The updraft then begin to rotate as there are variations in wind speeds and directions.

If the pressure in the room is 759.2 torr and the vapor pressure of water is 23.8 torr, what is the pressure of hydrogen gas in
Gwar [14]

The partial pressure of Hydrogen gas can directly be calculated by simply taking the difference of the overall pressure and the vapour pressure of water. That is:

 

P (H2 gas) = 759.2 torr – 23.8 torr

<span>P (H2 gas) = 735.4 torr</span>
