In the electrolysis of molten fei3, which product forms at the cathode?

1 answer:

6 0

Then product forms at the cathode is Fe metal

Fei3 undergo dissociate to form fe^ 3+ + 3I^-

Fe^3+ move to the negative electrode(cathode) where they are reduced to metallic iron by gaining 3e-

that is Fe^3+(aq) + 3e- = Fe(s)

What is the predicted change in the boiling point of water when 1.50 g of

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

0.00735°C

Explanation:

By seeing the question, we can see the elevation in boiling point with addition of BaCl₂ in water

⠀

$\textsf {While} \: \sf {\Delta T_b} \: \textsf{expression is used} \\ \textsf {for elevation of boiling point}$

⠀

The elevation in boiling point is a phenomenon in which there is increase in boiling point in solution, when the particular type of solute is added to pure solvent.

⠀

$\sf \large \underline{The \: formula \: to \: be \: used \: in \: this \: question \: is} \\ \boxed{T_b = i \times K_b \times m}$

⠀

Where 'i' is van't hoff factor which represents the ratio of observed osmotic pressure and the value to be expected.

and 'i' is 3 (as given in the question)

⠀

'Kb' is molal boiling point constant. And it's value is 0.51°C/mol(given in question)

⠀

'm' represent the molality of solution. Molatity is no. of moles of solution present in 1kg of solution.

⠀

To find molality, we have to divide no. of moles of solute by weight of solution

⠀

While first we need to no. of moles

$\sf \implies no. \: of \: moles = \frac{weight \: of \: solute}{molar \: mass \: of \: solute} \\ \\ \implies \sf no. \: of \: moles = \frac{1.5}{208.23} \\ \\ \sf \implies no. \: of \: moles = 0.0072$

⠀

Now, we will find molality

⠀

$\sf \hookrightarrow molality = \frac{no.\: of \: moles}{weight \: of \: solution} \\ \\ \sf \hookrightarrow molality = \frac{0.072}{1.5} \\ \\ \sf \hookrightarrow molality = 0.048 \: mol {kg}^{ - 1}$
