Mercury and carbon two electrodes can't be used with an inactive or inert material.

<h3>What is an electrode?</h3>

The electrode is the element which is used to complete the electric circuit in welding. Some time electrode is connected with the positive terminal and sometimes with a negative terminal, it depends on the requirement of the welding process.

Inert electrode is an electrode that serves only as a source or sink for electrons without playing a chemical role in the electrode reaction. Precious metals, mercury, and carbon are typically used as inert electrodes.

Therefore, neither of the two electrodes can be used with an inactive or inert material.

A sample of air is slowly passed through aqueous Sodium hydroxide and then over heater copper. Which gases are removed by this p

bagirrra123 [75]

Carbon dioxide and oxygen are removed from the air.

Explanation:

When air is passed through aqueous sodium hydroxide solution the carbon dioxide is removed from the air.

First the carbon dioxide will dissolve and react with water to form carbonic acid ( H₂CO₃) :

CO₂ + H₂O → H₂CO₃

The the carbonic acid will react with sodium hydroxide to form sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃):

H₂CO₃ + 2 NaOH → Na₂CO₃ + 2 H₂O

After this by passing the air over heated cooper the oxygen is removed.

2 Cu + O₂ → 2 CuO

Consider the equilibrium reaction. 2 A + B − ⇀ ↽ − 4 C After multiplying the reaction by a factor of 2, what is the new equilibr

vredina [299]

Answer : The correct expression for equilibrium constant will be:

$K_c=\frac{[C]^8}{[A]^4[B]^2}$

Explanation :

Equilibrium constant : It is defined as the equilibrium constant. It is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants.

The equilibrium expression for the reaction is determined by multiplying the concentrations of products and divided by the concentrations of the reactants and each concentration is raised to the power that is equal to the coefficient in the balanced reaction.

As we know that the concentrations of pure solids and liquids are constant that is they do not change. Thus, they are not included in the equilibrium expression.

The given equilibrium reaction is,

$4A+2B\rightleftharpoons 8C$

The expression of $K_c$ will be,

$K_c=\frac{[C]^8}{[A]^4[B]^2}$

Therefore, the correct expression for equilibrium constant will be, $K_c=\frac{[C]^8}{[A]^4[B]^2}$

Reika [66]

Answer:

2,2,4-Trimethyl-pentane

Explanation:

Structural characteristics of the compound is as follows:

Has five methyl group
Has one quaternary carbon
No. double bond
Gives four monochloro substitution products

Compound must have straight chain of 5 carbons.

Three methyl substituents are attached to 2 and 4 carbons.

Therefore, IUPAC name of the compound will be 2,2,4-Trimethyl-pentane.

The molar heat capacity of ethane is represented in the temperature range 298 K to 400 K by the empirical expression Cp,m in J K

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

-88.66 kJ/mol

Explanation:

The expressions of heat capacity (Cp,m) for C(s) and for H₂(g) are:

C(s): Cp,m/(J K-1 mol-1) = 16.86 + (4.77T/10³) - (8.54x10⁵/T²)

H₂(g): Cp,m/(J K-1 mol-1) = 27.28 + (3.26T/10³) + (0.50x10⁵/T²)

Cp = A + BT + CT⁻²

For the Kirchoff's Law:

ΔHf = ΔH°f + $\int\limits^{T2}_{T1} {DCp(T)} \, dT$

Where ΔH°f is the enthalpy at 298 K, T1 is 298 K, T2 is the temperature given (373 K), and DCp is the variation of Cp (products less reactants). ΔH°f for ethene is -84.68 kJ/mol and the reaction is:

2C(s) + 3H₂(g) → C₂H₆

So, DCp:

dA = A(C₂H₆) - [2xA(C) + 3xA(H₂)] = 14.73 - [2x16.86 + 3x27.28] = -100.83

dB = B(C₂H₆) - [2xB(C) + 3xB(H₂)] = 0.1272 - [2x4.77x10⁻³ + 3x3.26x10⁻³] = 0.10788

dC = C(C₂H₆) - [2xC(C) + 3xC(H₂)] = 0 - (2x(-8.54x10⁵) + 3x0.50x10⁵) = 15.58x10⁵

dCp = -100.83 + 0.10788T + 15.58x10⁵T⁻²

$\int\limits^{373}_{298} {-100.83 + 0.10788T + 15.58x10^5T^{-2}} \, dT$ = -3796.48 J/mol = -3.80 kJ/mol (solved by a graphic calculator)

ΔHf = -84.68 - 3.80

ΔHf = -88.66 kJ/mol
