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

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

It would be True

Explanation:

Because they both have the same push of gravity. Gravity affects all objects equally. If you drop an egg and a watermelon at the same time they would both collide with the floor at the same time.

What is meant by the term neutral in relation to atoms?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

it means positive and negative charges are  equal.

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

when a neutral atom loses a electron positive charge is created because  number of protons are positive charge becomes greater than negative charge.

X → X⁺ + e⁻

When a neutral atom accept  the electron negative charge is created because negative charge is become greater than positive charge.

X + e⁻ → X⁻
