From the change in free energy, we can calculate the equilibrium constant by the equation <span>ΔG°=-RT ln(K) where K is the equilibrium constant.

-418.6x10^2 = -(8.314)(298) ln (K)
K = 2.38x10^73

K is expressed as:

K = 1 / Pso2 (Po2)^0.5 = 1/ </span>Pso2 (0.21)^0.5
 2.38x10^73 = 1/ Pso2 (0.21)^0.5
Pso2 = 9.17x10^-74 atm

Why do the carbon anodes need to be replaced regularly in the electrolysis of Al2O3 into aluminum metal?
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

A) They get oxidized into carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide by the oxygen molecules generated on the electrode.

Explanation:

In the electrolysis of Aluminium, the oxygen reacts with the carbon anodes forming carbon dioxide. That is, the anodes are oxidized. To ensure that the reaction completes, the anode must gradually be replaced as the reaction proceeds. The correct option is hence;

A) They get oxidized into carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide by the oxygen molecules generated on the electrode.

What is the percentage composition of carbon and hydrogen in ethane(c2h6,molecular mass 30.0)<br>​
My name is Ann [436]

Answer

% of C in C2H6= (2×12)/30×100=80%

% of H in C2H6= (3×2)/30×100=20%

Explanation:

2C+3H2-C2H6

nC=12, nH=1, nC2H6=30

2moles of C-1mole of C2H6

3moles of H-1 mole of C2H6

% of C in C2H6= (2×12)/30×100=80%

% of H in C2H6= (3×2)/30×100=20%
