The given question incomplete, the complete question is:

In the Hall-Heroult process, a large electric current is passed through a solution of aluminum oxide (Al,03) dissolved in molten cryolite (Na, Alts).re in the reduction of the Al, o, to pure aluminum. Suppose a current of 1800. A is passed through a Hall-Heroult cell for 37.0 seconds. Calculate the mass of pure aluminum produced Be sure your answer has a unit symbol and the correct number of significant digits.

Answer:

The correct answer is 6.2114 grams.

Explanation:

Based on the given question, the value of current or I have given is 1800 amperes, the time given is 37 seconds, and there is a need to find the mass of the pure aluminum generated in the process. Mass or weight can be determined by using Faraday's first law equation, that is, w = MIt/nF.  

Here, M is the atomic mass, w is the weight of the substance deposited, t is time, I is current, n is the number of moles of the electron, and F is the Faraday's constant, which is 96500 C. In the process mentioned in the question, aluminum oxide is reduced to give rise to pure aluminum, and in the process 3 electrons are gained. So, the value of n will be 3. The M or the atomic mass of Al is 27 gm per mole. Now putting the values in the equation we get,  

w = 27*1800*37 / 3*96500

w = 1798200 / 289500

w = 6.2114 grams

Hence, pure aluminum produced in the process is 6.2114 grams.

For the reaction 3h2(g) + n2(g) 2nh3(g), kc = 9.0 at 350°c. calculate g° at 350°c.
miss Akunina [59]
When ΔG° is the change in Gibbs free energy

So according to ΔG° formula:

ΔG° =  - R*T*(㏑K)

here when K = [NH3]^2/[N2][H2]^3 = Kc 

and Kc = 9 

and when T is the temperature in Kelvin = 350 + 273 = 623 K

and R is the universal gas constant = 8.314 1/mol.K

So by substitution in ΔG° formula:

∴ ΔG° = - 8.314 1/ mol.K * 623 K *㏑(9)

           = - 4536

netineya [11]

The unbalanced equation is one in which the moles of atoms are not equal on both sides of the reaction.

<h3>What is a balanced chemical equation?</h3>

A balanced chemical equation is one in wgich the moles of atoms in the reactants side is equal to the moles of atoms on the product side.

The given equations of reaction is not clearly stated.

Therefore, the unbalanced equation is one in which the moles of atoms are not equal on both sides of the reaction.
