Zinc is used as a coating for steel to protect the steel from environmental corrosion. If a piece of steel is submerged in an el

ectrolysis bath for 24 minutes with a current of 6.5 Amps, how many grams of zinc will be plated out? The molecular weight of Zn is 65.38, and Zn+2 + 2e– → Zn. Question 7 options: A) 3.17 g of Zn B) 1.09 g of Zn C) 6.34 g of Zn D) 12.68 g of Zn

Answer:

A) 3.17 g of Zn

Explanation:

Let's consider the reduction of Zn(II) that occurs in an electrolysis bath.

Zn⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻ → Zn(s)

We can establish the following relations:

  • 1 min = 60 s
  • 1 A = 1 C/s
  • The charge of 1 mole of electrons is 96,468 C (Faraday's constant).
  • When 2 moles of electrons circulate, 1 mole of Zn is deposited.
  • The molar mass of Zn is 65.38 g/mol

The mass of Zn deposited under these conditions is:

24min \times \frac{60s}{1min} \times \frac{6.5C}{s} \times \frac{1mol\ e^{-} }{96,468C} \times \frac{1molZn}{2mol\ e^{-}}  \times \frac{65.38g}{1molZn} = 3.17 g

At 19.9 degrees Celsius, we dissolve a salt crystal.
belka [17]

Answer:

The red dot represents the melting point of the element, which as stated is approximately 19.9 degrees Celsius and how long it took for the heat to properly completely dissolve it.

The question kind of answers itself however, is there a way to re-word it or is there a different answer you're looking for?

A compound has a percent composition of 15.24% sodium (molar mass = 22.99
RUDIKE [14]

The empirical formula of the compound obtained from the question given is NaBrO₃

<h3>Data obtained from the question </h3>
  • Sodium (Na) = 15.24%
  • Bromine (Br) = 52.95%
  • Oxygen (O) = 31.81%
  • Empirical formula =?

<h3>How to determine the empirical formula </h3>

The empirical formula of the compound can be obtained as illustrated below:

Divide by their molar mass

Na = 15.24 / 22.99 = 0.663

Br = 52.95 / 79.90 = 0.663

O = 31.81 / 16 = 1.988

Divide by the smallest

Na = 0.663 / 0.663 = 1

Br = 0.663 / 0.663 = 1

O = 1.988 / 0.663 = 3

Thus, the empirical formula of the compound is NaBrO₃
