The amount of charge required to reduce Zn²⁺ to Zn is 1585.26 coulomb.

<h3>What is electrolysis?</h3>

The process that has been equipped with the use of electric current to break the chemical compound and deposited at the constituent electrodes is termed as electrolysis.

The reaction of reduction of Zn can be given as:

Zn²⁺ + 2e⁻ → Zn (s)

Molar mass of Zn = 65.39 g

The equivalent of Zn²⁺ has been:

Equivalent = atomic mass/equivalent weight

Equivalent Zn²⁺ = 65.39/32.69

Equivalent Zn²⁺ = 2 mol

1 equivalent = 1 F charge used

2 mol equivalent = 2 F charge used

Charge in coulomb can be given as:

1 Faraday = 96500 coulomb

2 F = 96500 * 2 coulomb

2 F = 1,93,000 coulomb

The moles of Zn to be deposited is:

Moles = weight /molar weight

Moles = 0.5371 g/ 65.39 g/mol

Moles = 0.00821 mol

Therefore, the charge used for the deposition of 0.00821 mol is:

Charge = 0.00821 * 1,93,000 coulomb

Charge = 1585.26 coulomb

1585.26 coulomb charge was used to reduce the Zn²⁺ to Zn.

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Hello there! How are you doing today :] Sand would be a covalent bond.

Explanation:

Silica is one of the main compounds found in sand. It also contains many silicon and oxygen atoms. which; are joined together by covalent bonds in a regular arrangement, forming a giant covalent structure.

*WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!<br> Why is it difficult for us to use fusion reactions to produce energy?
kolbaska11 [484]
Fusion occurs constantly on our sun, which produces most of its energy via the nuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium. Neither do fusion reactions produce the large amounts of dangerous radioactive waste that fission reactions do. That's why it's such a dreamy source of energy.

Which statements describe the six elements found in all living things? Check all that apply.
vovangra [49]

Answer:

Carbon is the basis of all living things

Nitrogen is found in certain foods

Oxygen and hydrogen combine with each other to form water

Carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, phosphorus and sulfur are found in organic compounds

Explanation:

We are all made up of mainly three elements, Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. These three elements are found in every living organism on our planet, and along with a few trace elements, they make up all the nutrients we take in and use to build our bodies and survive.

Nitrogen is primarily found in meats, and this is because nitrogen is a key element in amino acids (which are used to build proteins), however we cannot directly assimilate nitrogen from the air, so we have to assimilate it through amino acids already synthesized in plants, or in proteins found in meat.

The chemical formula for water is H₂O. Seeing the chemical formula, it is obvious that hydrogen and oxygen are the only elements in the water molecule.

In our bodies, we use phosphorus to form our skeleton and help maintain it, sulfur and nitrogen can be found in some amino acids, and carbon, hydrogen and oxygen can be found in carbohydrates, lipids and proteins.

C9H20 +<br> 02 - &gt; CO2 +<br> H2O<br><br> what is the balanced equation of this
san4es73 [151]

Hey there!

C₉H₂O + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O

First let's balance the C.

There's 9 on the left and 1 on the right. So, let's add a coefficient of 9 in front of CO₂.

C₉H₂O + O₂ → 9CO₂ + H₂O

Next let's balance the H.

There's 2 on the left and 2 on the right. This means it's already balanced.

C₉H₂O + O₂ → 9CO₂ + H₂O

Lastly, let's balance the O.

There's 3 on the left and 19 on the right. So, let's add a coefficient of 9 in front of O₂.

C₉H₂O + 9O₂ → 9CO₂ + H₂O

This is our final balanced equation.

Hope this helps!
