If a substance undergoes electrolysis and a brown solid forms on one electrode and a gas on the other, from this we can conclude

Answer:

b. a compound.

Explanation:

Electrolysis is described as a mechanism in which ionic compounds are decomposed into their elements by transmitting a direct electric current via the compound in a liquid state. At the cathode, the cations are reduced and anions at the anode are oxidized. There is an exchange between ions and atoms in the electrolysis process caused by the addition or removal between electrons from the external circuit. As per the question, the original substance is a compound because the electrolysis method is used to obtain pure elements from their respective compound.

Answer:

3. The mass of ethanol required is approximately 0.522869 g

The mass of ethanoic acid required is approximately 0.68156 g

4. The mass of iron (III) oxide required is approximately 285.952.189.095 tonnes

5. The mass of silver nitrate required is approximately 14.53 grams

6. The mass of copper oxide that would be needed is approximately 31.86 grams

7. a. The mass of the precipitate, Zn(OH)₂ formed is approximately 49.712 grams

b. The mass of the precipitate, Al(OH)₃ formed is approximately 13 grams

c. The mass of the precipitate, Mg(OH)₂, formed is approximately 14.579925 grams

Explanation:

3. The 1 mole of ethanol and 1 mole of ethanoic acid combines to form 1 mole of ethyl ethanoate

The number of moles of ethyl ethanoate in 1 gram of ethyl ethanoate, n = 1 g/(88.11 g/mol) = 1/88.11 moles

∴ The number of moles of ethanol = 1/88.11 moles

The number of moles of ethanoic acid = 1/88.11 moles

The mass of ethanol = (46.07 g/mol) × 1/88.11 moles = 0.522869 g

The mass of ethanoic acid in the reaction = 60.052 g/mol × 1/88.11 moles ≈ 0.68156 g

4. 1 mole of iron(III) oxide reacts with 1 mole of CO₂ to produce 1 mole of iron

The number of moles in 100 tonnes of iron= 100000000/55.845 = 1790670.60614 moles

The mass of iron (III) oxide required = 159.69 × 1790670.60614 = 285952189.095 g ≈ 285.952.189.095 tonnes

5. The number of moles of NaCl in 5 grams of NaCl = 5 g/58.44 g/mol = 0.0855578371 moles

The mass of silver nitrate required, m = 169.87 g/mol × 0.0855578371 moles ≈ 14.53 grams

6. The number of moles of CuSO₄·5H₂O in 100 g of CuSO₄·5H₂O = 100 g/(249.69 g/mol) ≈ 0.4005 moles

The mass of copper oxide required, m = 79.545 g/mol × 0.4005 moles ≈ 31.86 grams

7. a. The number of moles of NaOH in the reaction = 20 g/(39.997 g/mol) ≈ 0.5 moles

2 moles of NaOH produces 1 mole of Zn(OH)₂

0.5 moles of NaOH will produce 0.5 mole of Zn(OH)₂

The mass of 0.5 mole of Zn(OH)₂ = 0.5 mole × 99.424 g/mol = 49.712 grams

The mass of the precipitate, Zn(OH)₂ formed = 49.712 grams

b. 6 moles of NaOH produces 2 moles Al(OH)₃

20 g, or 0.5 mole of NaOH will produce (1/6) mole of Al(OH)₃

The mass of the precipitate, Al(OH)₃ formed, m = 78 g/mol×(1/6) moles = 13 grams

c. 2 moles of NaOH produces 1 mole of Mg(OH)₂, therefore;

20 g or 0.5 moles of NaOH formed (1/4) mole of Mg(OH)₂

The mass of the precipitate, Mg(OH)₂, formed, m = 58.3197 g/mol × (1/4) moles = 14.579925 grams

What subatomic particles participate in chemical bonding
Advocard [28]
The subatomic particle involved in chemical bonding is the electron. Electrons are the smallest of all subatomic particles and orbit the nucleus in discrete energy levels called shells. Electrons are negatively charged and the nucleus is positively charged due to the protons.

The following balanced equation shows the formation of water. 2H2 + O2 2H2O How many moles of oxygen (O2) are required to comple
motikmotik

Answer:

13.7 moles of O₂ are needed

Explanation:

In order to find the moles of reactants that may react to make the products we need to determine the reaction:

Reactants are hydrogen and oxygen

Product: Water

2 moles of hydrogen can react to 1 mol of oxygen and produce 2 moles of water.

Balanced reaction: 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) →  2H₂O(l)

If 2 moles of hydrogen need 1 mol of oxygen to react

Therefore, 27.4 moles of H₂ must need (27.4 .1) / 2 = 13.7 moles of O₂

It takes 412. KJ/mol to break a carbon-hydrogen single bond. Calculate the maximum wavelength of light for which a carbon-hydrog
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

The maximum wavelength of light for which a carbon-hydrogen single bond could be broken by absorbing a single photon = 290 nm

Explanation:

                  So to break a single C - H bond require = \frac{412}{6.023 X (10)^{23} }

                           = 6.84 x 10⁻¹⁹ joule

Find the wavelength of a photon we use E = hν

                                                             ⇒    E = \frac{hc}{Wavelength}

                   Where h = Planck's constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.K⁻¹.Mole⁻¹

                               c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/sec

                                                           Wavelength = \frac{6.626 X 10^{-34} X 3 X 10^{8} }{6.84 X10^{-19}  }

                                                                                 = 2.9 x 10⁻⁷ m

                                                                                 = 290 nm

                                           ∵ 1 nm = 10⁻⁹ m
