Answer:
New substances are produced by a chemical change
Answer:
Option A. FeCl3
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Mass of iron (Fe) = 6.25g
Mass of the compound formed = 18g
From the question, we were told that the compound formed contains chlorine. Therefore the mass of chlorine is obtained as follow
Mass of chlorine (Cl) = Mass of compound formed – Mass of iron.
Mass of chlorine (Cl) = 18 – 6.25
Mass of chlorine (Cl) = 11.75g
The compound therefore contains:
Iron (Fe) = 6.25g
Chlorine (Cl) = 11.75g
The empirical formula for the compound can be obtained by doing the following:
Step 1:
Divide by their molar mass
Fe = 6.25/56 = 0.112
Cl = 11.75/35.5 = 0.331
Step 2:
Divide by the smallest
Fe = 0.112/0.112 = 1
Cl = 0.331/0.112 = 3
The empirical formula for the compound is FeCl3
Answer:
0.68 V
Explanation:
For anode;
3Mg(s) ---->3Mg^2+(aq) + 6e
For cathode;
2Al^3+(aq) + 6e -----> 2Al(s)
Overall balanced reaction equation;
3Mg(s) + 2Al^3+(aq) ----> 3Mg^2+(aq) + 2Al(s)
Since
E°anode = -2.356 V
E°cathode = -1.676 V
E°cell=-1.676 -(-2.356)
E°cell= 0.68 V
