what is meant by cathodic protection? a. steel is coated with a layer of paint b. iron in steel is oxidized to form a protective

oxide coating c. steel is coated with zinc because zinc is more easily oxidized than iron. d. a strip of magnesium is attached to steel because the magnesium is attached to steel because the magnesium is more easily oxidized than iron.

Rust can be avoided by using a procedure called cathodic protection. A metal like zinc or magnesium, which give up electrons to oxygen more quickly than iron does, is linked to the iron that has to be shielded. The iron won't corrode in this case, only the so-called sacrificial cathode.

By providing a highly active metal that may function as an anode and provide free electrons, the cathodic protection approach for steel maintains the metal. The active metal sacrifices its ions to introduce these free electrons, which prevents the corrosion of the less active steel. The simplest way to use CP is to join the metal that needs to be protected with another metal that will operate as the electrochemical cell's anode and is more susceptible to corrosion.

Which of the following are held together by nonpolar convalent bonds?
Olin [163]

A. Atoms of chlorine (Cl)

Explanation:

The atoms of chlorine are held together by non-polar covalent bonds.

  • Covalent bonds are formed between two or more atoms having zero or very small electronegativity difference.
  • For homonuclear molecules where the two bonding atom are of the same kind, the electronegativity difference is zero.
  • This covalent bond type is called non-polar covalent bond.
  • In this bond type, there is equal sharing of the electron pair between the atoms and there is no electrostatic charge on the molecule.

How do you work out question 1a?
Sliva [168]

Answer:

-125 kJ

Explanation:

You calculate the energy required to break all the bonds in the reactants. Then you subtract the energy to break all the bonds in the products.

                     H₂C=CH₂   +    H₂ ⟶    H₃C-CH₃

Bonds:       4C-H + 1C=C     1H-H     6C-H + 1C-C

D/kJ·mol⁻¹:  413       612        436       413      347

The formula relating ΔHrxn and bond dissociation energies (D) is

ΔHrxn = Σ(Dreactants) – Σ(Dproducts)

(Note: This is an exception to the rule. All other thermochemical reactions are “products – reactants”. With bond energies, it’s “reactants – products”. The reason comes from the way we define bond energies.)

<em>For the reactant</em>s:

Σ(Dreactants) = 4 × 413 + 1 × 612 + 1 × 436 = 2700 kJ

<em>For the products:</em>

Σ(Dproducts) = 6 × 413 + 1 × 347 = 2825 kJ

<em>For the system</em> :

ΔHrxn = 2700 - 2825 = -125 kJ
