The mass of copper deposited is 9.589 g .

Given ,

A volatile cell using Cu/Cu2+ and Sn/Sn2+ half cells is set up at standard conditions ,and each compartment has a volume of 345 ml .

current = 0.17 A

time = 48 hrs =48 (60) (60) =172800 sec

we know , I = Q/t

thus , Q ,charge= It = 0.17 (17280) =29376 C

Then ,atomic mass of copper is 63 g

And valency of Cu is 2.

Thus , the equivalent mass of copper is 63/2 = 31.5

We know , 96500 coulombs of electricity produce copper = 31.5 g

29376 C of electricity produce copper =9.589 g

Hence , 9.589 g of Copper is deposited .

6. What is the oxidation number for the atom indicated in the following compounds.
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

a. +6;

b. +5;

c. +3.

Explanation:

Start with elements with well-known oxidation states.

The oxidation state on oxygen O in compounds is mostly -2. Common exceptions include:

  • -1 in peroxides and
  • positive when oxygen bonds to fluorine.

The oxidation state on group 1 metals (Li, Na, K, etc.) in compounds is mostly +1.

The oxidation state on group 2 metals (Be, Mg, Ca, etc.) in compounds is mostly +2.

Barium Ba is a group 2 metal. The oxidation state on Ba in the compound BaSO₄ is expected to be +2.

The oxidation state on hydrogen H in compounds is mostly +1. The oxidation state on H might be negative when it is bonded to metals.  

The oxidation state on halogens (F, Cl, Br, etc.) is mostly -1. The oxidation state may vary when the halogen is bonded to oxygen or another halogen element.

Compounds are neutral. The oxidation state on all atoms in a compound shall add up to 0. Both BaSO₄ and HClO₂ are neutral.

<h3>BaSO₄</h3>

Oxidation states:

  • Ba: +2;
  • The oxidation state on sulfur S is to be determined;
  • O: -2.

Let the oxidation state on S be x.

2 + x + 4 × (-2) = 0;

x = 6.

Hence, the oxidation state on S in BaSO₄ is +6.

<h3>HClO₂</h3>

Oxidation states:

  • H: +1;
  • Cl here is bonded to oxygen. The oxidation state on chlorine Cl is to be determined;
  • O: -2.

Let the oxidation state on Cl be x.

<em>Refer to the equation in BaSO₄ as an example. Try setting up the equation on your own. </em>

x = 3.

Hence, the oxidation state on Cl is +3.

<h3>PO₄³⁻</h3>

Ions carry charge. Oxidation states on atoms in an ion shall add up to the charge of the ion. The superscript of an ion shows its charge. The superscript 3- in the phosphate ion shows that the ion carries a charge of -3.

Oxidation states:

  • The oxidation state on P is to be found;
  • O: -2.

Let the oxidation state on P be x.

x + 4 × (-2) = -3;

x = 5.

Hence, the oxidation state on P is +5.

A sample of methane at a pressure of 1.00 atm and a temperature of 93.1 K is heated at constant pressure to a temperature of 158
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

b. The final state of the substance is a gas.

d. The sample is initially a liquid. One or more phase changes will occur.

Explanation:

Methane has the following properties:

  • Normal melting point: 90.7 K
  • Normal boiling point: 111.65 K

*"Normal" refers to normal pressure (1 atm).

According to this, we can affirm:

  • Below 90.7 K, methane is solid.
  • Between 90.7 K and 111.65 K, methane is liquid.
  • Above 111.65 K, methane is gas.

<em>A sample of methane at a pressure of 1.00 atm and a temperature of 93.1 K is heated at constant pressure to a temperature of 158 K. Which of the following are true? Choose all that apply.</em>

<em>a. The liquid initially present will solidify.</em>  FALSE. The liquid will vaporize.

<em>b. The final state of the substance is a gas.</em>  TRUE.

<em>c. The sample is initially a solid.</em>  FALSE. The sample is initially a liquid.

<em>d. The sample is initially a liquid. One or more phase changes will occur. </em>TRUE.
