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.

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

1.099 gmL¯¹ ≈ 1.1 gmL¯¹

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following were obtained:

Mass of empty cylinder = 9.5 g

Mass Cylinder + NaOH = 31.92 g

Volume of solution = 20.4 mL

Concentration of solution =?

Next, we shall determine the mass of sodium hydroxide, NaOH. This can be obtained as as illustrated below:

Mass of empty cylinder = 9.5 g

Mass Cylinder + NaOH = 31.92 g

Mass of NaOH =?

Mass of NaOH = (Mass Cylinder + NaOH) – (Mass of empty cylinder)

Mass of NaOH = 31.92 – 9.5

Mass of NaOH = 22.42 g

Finally, we shall determine concentration of the solution as follow:

Mass of NaOH = 22.42 g

Volume of solution = 20.4 mL

Concentration of solution =?

Concentration = mass /volume

Concentration of solution = 22.42 / 20.4

Concentration of solution = 1.099 gmL¯¹ ≈ 1.1 gmL¯¹

Therefore, the concentration of the solution is 1.1 gmL¯¹

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The term conclusion best illustrates the given statement.

Explanation:

Conclusion refers to a decision or judgment that can be acquired by reasoning. From the observation mentioned in the given table:  

1. The steel, aluminum, and bronze took 27, 45 and 80 seconds to dissolve small section of wax, this signifies that more time will be needed by them to transfer heat to the food while cooking. Thus, food will take more time to cook in them.  

2. Copper consumed less time, that is, 15 seconds to melt the section of wax than the other metal pots, which signifies that it is a good conductor of heat than the others. Thus, the copper pot would be good for cooking food briskly.  

After evaluating the results and observations in an experiment, the conclusion was made that pots made of copper are best for cooking foods.
