Answer:

The molar mass of the gas is 44 g/mol

Explanation:

It is possible to solve this problem using Graham's law that says: Rates of effusion are inversely dependent on the square of the mass of each gas. That is:

\frac{r_1}{r_2} =\frac{\sqrt{M_2} }{\sqrt{M_1} }

If rate of effusion of nitrogen is Xdistance / 48s and for the unknown gas is X distance / 60s and mass of nitrogen gas is 28g/mol (N₂):

\frac{X/48s}{X/60s} =\frac{\sqrt{M_2} }{\sqrt{28g/mol} }

6,61 = √M₂

44g/mol = M₂

<em>The molar mass of the gas is 44 g/mol</em>

How much time is needed to deposit 1.0 g of chromium metal from an aqueous solution of crcl3 using a current of 1.5 a?
PSYCHO15rus [73]
The metal component of the given compound, CrCl3, is chromium. The number of moles per 1 g of chromium is calculated through the equation below,

        n = (1 g Cr)(1 mol Cr/51.996 g Cr)
              n = 0.0192 mol Cr(3 electrons/1 mol Cr) 
                n = 0.0577 e-

Determine the number in charge by multiplying with Faraday's constant,

      C = (0.0577 mol Cr)((1 F/1 mol e-)(96485 C/ 1F)
             C = 5,566.87 C

Then, calculate time by dividing the charge with the current,

     t = 5566.87 C/1.5 A 
     t = 3711.25 minutes
     t = 61.84 hours
