purification of chromium can be achieved by electrorefining chromium from an impure chromium anode onto a pure chromium cathode

in an electrolytic cell. how many hours will it take to plate 18.0 kg of chromium onto the cathode if the current passed through the cell is held constant at 45.0 a ? assume the chromium in the electrolytic solution is present as cr3+ .

The chromium in the electrolytic solution is present as cr³⁺ will take 6.19 hours  will it take to plate 18.0 kg of chromium onto the cathode if the current passed through the cell is held constant at 45.0 A.

It is given that mass is 18 kg. Converting mass into grams

18 x (1000g / 1 kg)

= 18000 g

So, 18 kg = 18000 g

Now, calculate the number of moles

No. of moles = mass of Cr / molecular mass of Cr

No. of moles = 18000 / 52 g/mole

No. of moles = 346.15 mole

For , Cr³⁺, 3 moles of electrons are required

Hence,

3 x 346.15 mole

1038.45

As 96500 C of charge are present in 1 mole of electrons. As a result, the charge held by 1038.45 mole of electrons will be determined as follows.

= 1038.45mol x  96500 C / mole

= 10.02 x 10⁷ C

As, we know that relation between charge, current and time is as follows.

Q = I x T

Current is given as 45 A

Therefore, charge is calculated  

T = Q / I

T = 100.21 x 10⁶ / 45

T = 2.227 x 10⁶

As there are 3600 seconds in one 1 hour. Converting 2.227 x 10⁶ into hours are

= 2.227 x 10⁶ / 3600 sec/h

= 6.19 hours

Thus, if the current flowing through the cell is maintained constant at 45 A, we may estimate that it will take 6.19 hours to plate 18 kg of chromium onto the cathode.

30cm^3 of a dilute solution of Ca(OH)2 required 11 cm^3 of 0.06 mol/dm^. Hcl for complete neutralization. Calculate the concentr
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer: Thus concentration of Ca(OH)_2 in mol/dm^3  is 0.011 and in g/dm^3 is 0.814

Explanation:

To calculate the concentration of Ca(OH)_2, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2

where,

n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is HCl

n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is Ca(OH)_2

We are given:

n_1=1\\M_1=0.06mol/dm^3\\V_1=11cm^3=0.011dm^3\\n_2=2\\M_2=?\\V_2=30cm^3=0.030dm^3         1cm^3=0.001dm^3

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1\times 0.06mol/dm^3\times 0.011dm^3=2\times M_2\times 0.030dm^3\\\\M_2=0.011mol/dm^3

The concentration in g/dm^3 is 0.011mol/dm^3\times 74g/mol=0.814g/dm^3

Thus concentration of Ca(OH)_2 is 0.011mol/dm^3 and 0.814g/dm^3

given the following hypothetical reaction 2E(g)+ F(g)+O(g)_products.if the rate law is rate _K(e)^2(f)^-1,what is the order of t
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, considering the given information, it is not possible to figure out such order of reaction with respect to water as it is not involved in the given chemical reaction:

2E(g)+ F(g)+O(g)_

However, we can say that the order of reaction is 2 with respect to E (power of 2 in the rate law), 1 with respect to F (power of 1 in the rate law) and 0 with respect to O (power of 0 or not present in the rate law).

Regards!

Electronegativity _____. generally increases moving from left to right across a period generally decreases moving from left to r
mojhsa [17]
I believe the correct answer would be that electronegativity generally increases moving from left to right across a period. The periodic table of elements is arranged so that trends of the properties of the elements can be shown. For electronegativity, it decreases from right to left which means for the opposite direction it increases.
