Gallium is produced by the electrolysis of a solution obtained by dissolving gallium oxide in concentrated NaOH(aq). Calculate t
Alina [70]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of gallium produced by the electrolysis is 0.0354 grams.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The equation for the deposition of Ga(s) from Ga(III) solution follows:

Ga^{3+}(aq.)+3e^-\rightarrow Ga(s)

  • To calculate the total charge, we use the equation:

C=I\times t

where,

C = charge

I = current = 0.490 A

t = time required (in seconds) = 50\times 60=300s    (Conversion factor: 1 min = 60 s)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

C=0.490\times 300=147C

  • To calculate the moles of electrons, we use the equation:

\text{Moles of electrons}=\frac{C}{F}

where,

C = charge = 147 C

F = Faradays constant = 96500

\text{Moles of electrons}=\frac{147}{96500}=1.52\times 10^{-3}mol

  • Now, to calculate the moles of gallium, we use the equation:

\text{Moles of Gallium}=\frac{\text{Moles of electrons}}{n}

where,

n = number of electrons transferred = 3

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of Gallium}=\frac{1.52\times 10^{-3}}{3}=5.077\times 10^{-4}mol

  • To calculate the mass of gallium, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Moles of Gallium = 5.077\times 10^{-4}mol

Molar mass of Gallium = 69.72 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

5.077\times 10^{-4}mol=\frac{\text{Mass of Gallium}}{69.72g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of Gallium}=0.0354g

Hence, the mass of gallium produced by the electrolysis is 0.0354 grams.

A reaction vessel contains 10.0 g of CO and 10.0 g of O2. How many grams of CO2 could be produced according to the following rea
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

1. 15.71 g CO2

2. 38.19 % of efficiency

Explanation:

According to the balanced reaction (2 CO(g) + O2(g) → 2 CO2(g)), it is clear that the CO is the limitant reagent, because for every 2 moles of CO we are using only 1 mole of O2, so even if we have the same quantity for both reagents, not all of the O2 will be consumed. This means that we can just use the stoichiometric ratios of the CO and the CO2 to solve this question, and for that we need to convert the gram units into moles:

For CO:

C = 12.01 g/mol

O = 16 g/mol

CO = 28.01 g/mol

(10.0g CO) x (1 mol CO/28.01 g) = 0.3570 mol CO

For CO2:

C = 12.01 g/mol

O = 16 x 2 = 32 g/mol

CO2 = 44.01 g/mol

We now that for every 2 moles of CO we are going to get 2 moles of CO2, so we resolve as follows:

(0.3570 mol CO) x (2 mol CO2/2 mol CO) = 0.3570 moles CO2

We are obtaining 0.3570 moles of CO2 with the 10g of CO, now lets convert the CO2 moles into grams:

(0.3570 moles CO2) x (44.01 g/1 mol CO2) = 15.71 g CO2

Now for the efficiency question:

From the previous result, we know that if we produce 15.71 CO2 with all the 10g of CO used, we would have an efficiency of 100%. So to know what would that efficiency be if we would only produce 6g of CO2, we resolve as follows,

(6g / 15.71g) x 100 = 38.19 % of efficiency

The electrostatic attraction between positively charged nuclei and negatively charged electrons permits two atoms to be held tog
Serggg [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is a. chemical bond. See the explanation below, please.

Explanation:

The resulting electrostatic interaction is called ionic bond between ions of opposite charge (one negative and one positive). This allows the attraction between both charges, constituting a chemical compound. Eg the Sodium (Na +) ion combines with the Chlorine (Cl-) ion forming Nacl (sodium chloride, known as table salt).

Difference between fluids and nonfluids
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

All liquids are fluids but not all fluids are liquids. Fluids basically describe anything that can flow as a result of a difference in pressure between two points. Liquids on the other hand are a subset of fluids. Liquids are the incompressible fluids. These are the fluids who's density does not change sharply with pressure.

Gases are also fluids, they form the compressible fluids. They do flow as a result of difference in pressure between two points but at the same time they can be compressed or expanded. Their density fluctuates with pressure.

Hence fluids consist of 2 mutually exclusive groups of compressible and incompressible fluids. Liquids are the incompressible fluids and hence form a subset of the more general term fluid.

What would a general formula of an acid always start with? ( 1 point)
-Dominant- [34]
A general formula of an acid always start with an hydronium ion or H+.  The general formula of an acid have to end with an anion. As acids, these compounds are named starting with the prefix "hydro-," then adding the first syllable of the anion, then the suffix "-ic."
