Answer: petroleum
because it is a fossil fuel like coal, and natural gas.
Explanation:
The graphite anodes are suspended into the brine. During electrolysis, Cl ions are oxidized at the anode and chlorine gas goes out of the cell, while sodium ions are reduced at the mercury cathode forming sodium amalgam. ... Hydrogen gas is obtained as a by–product at the cathode.
Answer: The mass percentage of
is 5.86%
Explanation:
To calculate the mass percentage of
in the sample it is necessary to know the mass of the solute (
in this case), and the mass of the solution (pesticide sample, whose mass is explicit in the letter of the problem).
To calculate the mass of the solute, we must take the mass of the
precipitate. We can establish a relation between the mass of
and
using the stoichiometry of the compounds:

Since for every mole of Tl in
there are two moles of Tl in
, we have:

Using the molar mass of
we have:

Finally, we can use the mass percentage formula:

Answer:
E) This is not an Oxidation/ Reduction type of reaction
Explanation:
Oxidation involves the loss of electrons while reduction involves the addition of electrons. None of the elements change their oxidation number in the reaction, so this is not an oxidation/reduction type of reaction.
