When we send electricity to pass through electrolysis jar we see gas bubble around both electrodes. Water electrolysis produces
1 answer:
A) Anode - hydrogen gas
Cathode-oxygen gas
B) Hydrogen gas - The gas burns with a pop sound
Oxygen gas - The gas rekindles a glowing splint
C) The volume of gas produced at the cathode is 23
Electrolysis is the process by which electric current is passed through a substance to effect a chemical change.
The electrolysis of water produces two volumes of hydrogen at the anode and one volume of oxygen at the cathode.
The hydrogen gas burns with a pop sound. It is easily identified by this test. Also, oxygen is known to rekindle a glowing splint and this is a commonly used test for oxygen gas.
Since the ratio of hydrogen produced at the anode to oxygen produced at the cathode is 2:1 by volume; then when 23 of oxygen is produced at the cathode, 46
of hydrogen is produced at the anode.

The claim: "If the nucleus were the size of a grape, the electrons would be one mile away on average" is reasonably accurate because the ratios between the nucleus's sizes and the distances (between electrons and nucleus) for the two given examples are in the same order of magnitude.
To know if the claim is accurate we need to calculate the ratio of the size of the nucleus (the same as a grape) and the distance between the electrons and the nucleus for example 1 (r₁):
(1)
and to compare it with the ratio of the size and the distance given in example 2 (r₂):
(2)
<em>Where:</em>
s₁: is the size of the nucleus (like the size of a grape)
d₁: is the distance between electrons and nucleus of example 1 = 1 mile
s₂: is the average diameter of the nucleus = 10⁻¹³ cm
d₂: is the average distance between electrons and nucleus of example 2 = 10⁻⁸ cm
Assuming that the diameter of a grape is 3 cm (in a spherical way), the ratio of the <u>first example</u> is (eq 1):
Now, the ratio of the <u>second example</u> is (eq 2):
Since r₁ and r₂ are in the same order of magnitude (10⁻⁵), we can conclude that the given claim is reasonably accurate.
