The complete ionization of KBr into its constituents
is:<span>
<span>KBr (s) --->
K+ (aq) + Br- (aq)</span></span>
<span>
During electrolysis, oxidation takes place at the anode electrode. This means
that an ion is stripped off its electron hence becoming more positive:
<span>2 Br- (aq) --->
Br2 (g) + 2e- </span></span>
We can see that Bromine gas Br2 is evolved at the anode.
<span>
<span>Meanwhile at the cathode, the reduction reaction occurs.
Which means that the electron from the anode electrode is used to make an ion
more negative:
<span>2K+ (aq) + 2e- ---> 2K (s) </span></span>
Hence, through reduction, solid potassium is deposited on the
plate.</span>
Half reactions:
<span>Anode: 2 Br- (aq) --->
Br2 (g) + 2e- </span>
<span>Cathode: 2K+ (aq) + 2e-
---> 2K (s) </span>

5)He discovered laws of planetary motion.
Answer:
Measure the brightness of a star through two filters and compare the ratio of red to blue light. Compare to the spectra of computer models of stellar spectra of different temperature and develop an accurate color-temperature relation.
Answer:
The initial velocity of the snowball was 22.21 m/s
Explanation:
Since the collision is inelastic, only momentum is conserved. And since the snowball and the box move together after the collision, they have the same final velocity.
Let
be the mass of the ball, and
be its initial velocity; let
be the mass of the box, and
be its velocity; let
be the final velocity after the collision, then according to the law of conservation of momentum:
.
From this we solve for
, the initial velocity of the snowball:

now we plug in the numerical values
,
,
, and
to get:


The initial velocity of the snowball is 22.21 m/s.
<em>P.S: we did not take vectors into account because everything is moving in one direction—towards the west.</em>
