Answer:

magnesium metal

Explanation:

According to the redox reaction equation, six electrons were transferred hence n=6 and F= Faraday's constant 96500C. ∆G° is given hence E°cell can easily be calculated as follows:

From ∆G°= -nFE°cell

E°cell= -∆G°/nF= -(-411×10^3/96500×6)

E°cell= 0.7098V

But for Al3+(aq)/Al(s) half cell, E°= -1.66V from standard table of reduction potentials.

E°cell= E°cathode- E°anode but Al3+(aq)/Al(s) half cell is the cathode

Hence

E°anode=E°cathode - E°cell

E°anode= -1.66-0.7098= -2.37V

This is the reduction potential of Mg hence the anode material was magnesium metal

How many chlorine atoms are on the products side of the reaction 2al 6hcl → 2alcl3 3h2? 2 3 6 9
GenaCL600 [577]

The number of chlorine atoms present on the product side of the reaction is 6

<h3>What is a chemical equation? </h3>

Chemical equations are representations of chemical reactions using symbols and formula of the reactants and products.

The balancing of chemical equations follows the law of conservation of matter which states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction but can be transferred from one form to another.

<h3>How to determine the number of atoms of Cl</h3>

2Al + 6HCl → 2AlCl₃ + 3H₂

Products => AlCl₃ and H₂

Number of Cl atoms = 2 × 3

Number of Cl atoms = 6 atoms
