Answer:
½O 2 + 2e - + H 2O → 2OH.
Explanation:
Redox reactions - Higher
In terms of electrons:
oxidation is loss of electrons
reduction is gain of electrons
Rusting is a complex process. The example below show why both water and oxygen are needed for rusting to occur. They are interesting examples of oxidation, reduction and the use of half equations:
iron loses electrons and is oxidised to iron(II) ions: Fe → Fe2+ + 2e-
oxygen gains electrons in the presence of water and is reduced: ½O2 + 2e- + H2O → 2OH-
iron(II) ions lose electrons and are oxidised to iron(III) ions by oxygen: 2Fe2+ + ½O2 → 2Fe3+ + O2-
The metal component of the given compound, CrCl3, is chromium. The number of moles per 1 g of chromium is calculated through the equation below,
n = (1 g Cr)(1 mol Cr/51.996 g Cr)
n = 0.0192 mol Cr(3 electrons/1 mol Cr)
n = 0.0577 e-
Determine the number in charge by multiplying with Faraday's constant,
C = (0.0577 mol Cr)((1 F/1 mol e-)(96485 C/ 1F)
C = 5,566.87 C
Then, calculate time by dividing the charge with the current,
t = 5566.87 C/1.5 A
t = 3711.25 minutes
t = 61.84 hours

Answer:
The metal which reduces the other compound is the one higher in reactivity. So in this case, it is.
Explanation:
Density is the measure of a material's mass per unit volume, used in many aspects of science, engineering and industry. Density can be calculated by dividing an object's mass by its volume. Since different materials have different densities, measuring an object's density can help determine which materials are in it. Finding the density of a metal sample can help to determine its purity.When measuring liquids and regularly shaped solids, mass and volume can be discovered by direct measurement and these two measurements can then be used to determine density. Using a pan balance, determine and record the mass of an object in grams. Using a vernier caliper or ruler, measure the length, depth and width of the object in centimeters. Multiply these three measurements to find the volume in cubic centimeters. Divide the object's mass by its volume to determine its density. Density is expressed in grams per cubic centimeter or grams per milliliter.
