Explanation:

The reaction equation will be as follows.

           Na^{+} + e^{-} \rightarrow Na(s)

Hence, moles of Na = moles of electron used

Therefore, calculate the number of moles of sodium as follows.

       No. of moles = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

                             = \frac{4500 g}{23 g/mol}    (as 1 kg = 1000 g)

                             = 195.65 mol

As,     Q = n \times F       where F = Faraday's constant

              = 195.65 mol \times 96500 C

              = 1.88 \times 10^{7} mol C

Relation between electrical energy and Q is as follows.

               E = Q \times V

Hence, putting the given values into the above formula and then calculate the value of electricity as follows.

              E = Q \times V

                 = 1.88 \times 10^{7} \times 5

                 = 9.4 \times 10^{7} J

As 1 J = 2.77 \times 10^{-7} kWh

Hence,      \frac{9.4 \times 10^{7}}{2.77 \times 10^{-7}} kWh

                = 3.39 kWh

Thus, we can conclude that 3.39 kilowatt-hours of electricity is required in the given situation.

What is the redox half equation for 3Ag2S + 2Al --> 6Ag + Al2, and identity which material is oxidized and which is reduced?
marta [7]

Answer:

Al is oxidized while Ag is reduced.

Explanation:

The complete molecular equation is;

3Ag2S + 2Al --> 6Ag + Al2S3

Oxidation half equation;

2Al ------> 2Al^3+ + 6e

Reduction half equation;

6Ag^+ + 6e -------> 6Ag

Overall redox reaction equation;

2Al + 6Ag^+ ----->2Al^3+ + 6Ag

Hence; Al is oxidized while Ag is reduced.
