The purpose for the "inert electrode" is quite obvious and also, it's spelled in it's name it's self. The purpose for this would be the first, "conduct electrons". This would be the purpose of this inert electrode, to conduct that electrons at the give time.

<span>A.to create a solution of anions
B. to create a solution of cations
C.to conduct electrons

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An inert electrode is defined as an electrode that releases electrons or which serves as a sink for electrons. An inert electrode does not participate chemically in the electrode reaction.

For example, in a voltaic cell anode is negatively charged and cathode is positively charged. So, electrons release from the anode and they get deposited on the cathode.

This leads to generation of electric current.

Therefore, we can conclude that the purpose of the inert electrode is to conduct electrons.

A 240.0 gram piece of copper is dropped into 400.0 grams of water at 24.0 °C. If the final temperature of water is 42.0 °C, what
ludmilkaskok [199]

The initial temperature of the copper piece if a 240.0 gram piece of copper is dropped into 400.0 grams of water at 24.0 °C is 345.5°C

<h3>How to calculate temperature?</h3>

The initial temperature of the copper metal can be calculated using the following formula on calorimetry:

Q = mc∆T

mc∆T (water) = - mc∆T (metal)

Where;

  • m = mass
  • c = specific heat capacity
  • ∆T = change in temperature

According to this question, a 240.0 gram piece of copper is dropped into 400.0 grams of water at 24.0 °C. If the final temperature of water is 42.0 °C, the initial temperature of the copper is as follows:

400 × 4.18 × (42°C - 24°C) = 240 × 0.39 × (T - 24°C)

30,096 = 93.6T - 2246.4

93.6T = 32342.4

T = 345.5°C

Therefore, the initial temperature of the copper piece if a 240.0 gram piece of copper is dropped into 400.0 grams of water at 24.0 °C is 345.5°C.

If 1.3 L of C3H8 combusts according to the equation below, how much CO2 will be produced?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

0.162 moles of CO₂ are produced by this reaction

Explanation:

The reaction is:

C₃H₈(g) + 5O₂(g)  →  3CO₂(g) +4H₂O(g)

As we have the volume of propane, we need to know the mass that has reacted, so we apply density's concept.

Density = Mass / Volume → Density . Volume = Mass

0.00183 g/mL . 1300 mL = Mass → 2.379 g

We determine the moles → 2.379 g . 1mol / 44 g = 0.054 moles

Ratio is 1:3. 1 mol of propane can produce 3 moles of dioxide

Then, 0.054 moles may produce (0.054 .3)/1 = 0.162 moles

What would happen if I removed a resistor from a parallel circuit? What would
barxatty [35]

Answer:

In a parallel circuit, current divides through resistors and current might be different depending upon the resistor and all resistors have the same potential difference. Therefore, if a parallel resistor was removed then the total resistance of the circuit will increase.
