Which process occurs at the anode in an electrochemical cell?

1 answer:

5 0

The process that occurs at the anode in an electrochemical cell is the loss of electrons. The answer is number 2. Oxidation occurs as electrons are lost at the anode at one of the electrodes in both an electrolytic cell and a voltaic cell.

The equilibrium 2NO(g)+Cl2(g)⇌2NOCl(g) is established at 500 K. An equilibrium mixture of the three gases has partial pressures

QveST [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For A:</u> The $K_p$ for the given reaction is $4.0\times 10^1$

<u>For B:</u> The $K_c$ for the given reaction is 1642.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The given chemical reaction follows:

$2NO(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NOCl(g)$

<u>For A:</u>

The expression of $K_p$ for the above reaction follows:

$K_p=\frac{(p_{NOCl})^2}{(p_{NO})^2\times p_{Cl_2}}$

We are given:

$p_{NOCl}=0.24 atm\\p_{NO}=9.10\times 10^{-2}atm=0.0910atm\\p_{Cl_2}=0.174atm$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$K_p=\frac{(0.24)^2}{(0.0910)^2\times 0.174}\\\\K_p=4.0\times 10^1$

Hence, the $K_p$ for the given reaction is $4.0\times 10^1$

<u>For B:</u>

Relation of $K_p$ with $K_c$ is given by the formula:

$K_p=K_c(RT)^{\Delta ng}$

where,

$K_p$ = equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure = $4.0\times 10^1$

$K_c$ = equilibrium constant in terms of concentration = ?

R = Gas constant = $0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = temperature = 500 K

$\Delta ng$ = change in number of moles of gas particles = $n_{products}-n_{reactants}=2-3=-1$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$4.0\times 10^1=K_c\times (0.0821\times 500)^{-1}\\\\K_c=\frac{4.0\times 10^1}{(0.0821\times 500)^{-1})}=1642$

Hence, the $K_c$ for the given reaction is 1642.

A solution of ammonia and water contains 2.10×1025 water molecules and 7.10×1024 ammonia molecules. How many total hydrogen atom

Natali5045456 [20]

There are 6.33 × 10²⁵ hydrogen atoms in this solution in total.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

There are two hydrogen atoms in each water $\text{H}_2\text{O}$ molecule.
There are three hydrogen atoms in each ammonia $\text{NH}_3$ molecule.

2.10 × 10²⁵ water molecules and 7.10 × 10²⁴ ammonia molecules will contain

$2 \times 2.10 \times 10^{25} + 3 \times 7.10 \times 10^{24} = 6.33 \times 10^{25}$ hydrogen atoms in total.

Can sedimentation and decantation be used for all types of mixtures? Explain

Bumek [7]

Explanation:

1. Sedimentation and decantation cannot be used for all types of mixtures.

Decantation is a separation technique in which is used to separate immiscible liquids or mixtures containing liquid and solids within them.

In decantation, gravity is used to bring the denser materials to settle at the bottom.

For homogenous mixtures, it is not possible to use decantation. A solution of sugar and water will not decant.

2. Yes, mass of an object reduces the settling time of such object in a mixture.

The higher the mass, the faster the rate of settling. Also, as we know, mass is directly proportional to density. A body with a high density will settle faster in solution.

How many particles are in 1.40 x 10^7 mol of aluminum (Al)?

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

<h3>Hlo there !! </h3>

<u>One mole of any substance contains 6.022*1023 structural units (atoms, molecules, ions, etc.). This number is known as the Avogadro constant.</u>

<u>One mole of any substance contains 6.022*1023 structural units (atoms, molecules, ions, etc.). This number is known as the Avogadro constant.So 1.04*107 mol of Al contains 1.40*107 * 6.022*1023 = 8.43*1030 structural units (in case of Al – atoms).</u>

<h3><u>8.43*1030 particles Al.</u></h3>
