Moles of electrons:

The moles of electrons that are transferred are 12F

A balanced equation:

2 moles of Aluminium metal react with excess copper(II) nitrate.

2Al + 3Cu{(NO_3)}_2  \rightarrow 2Al{(NO_3)}_3 +3 Cu

Given:

Moles of Aluminium = 2

As Aluminium goes from 0 to +3 oxidation state

Al \rightarrow Al^{3+} + 3e^-

And copper goes from +2 to 0

Cu^{2+} + 2e^-\rightarrow Cu

On balancing the number of electrons we get:

For 1 mole of Al 6e^- is required.

Therefore for 2 moles of Al,

Total (2\times6)F mole of electrons

Where F= Faraday's constant= 96500 C

So, 12F moles of electrons are transferred.

You have 50 ml of a complex mixture of weak acids that contains some HF (pKa = 3.18) and some HCN (pKa = 9.21). Which is larger,
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

\frac{[F^{-}]}{[HF]} is larger

Explanation:

pK_{a}=-logK_{a} , where K_{a} is the acid dissociation constant.

For a monoprotic acid e.g. HA, K_{a}=\frac{[H^{+}][A^{-}]}{[HA]} and \frac{[A^{-}]}{[HA]}=\frac{K_{a}}{[H^{+}]}

So, clearly, higher the K_{a} value , lower will the the pK_{a}

In this mixture, at equilibrium, [H^{+}] will be constant.

K_{a} of HF is grater than K_{a} of HCN

Hence, (\frac{F^{-}}{[HF]}=\frac{K_{a}(HF)}{[H^{+}]})>(\frac{CN^{-}}{[HCN]}=\frac{K_{a}(HCN)}{[H^{+}]})

So, \frac{[F^{-}]}{[HF]} is larger
