Answer : The correct option is, (4) at the cathode, where reduction occurs

Explanation :

Electrolytic cell : It is the cell in which the chemical reaction occurs by passing of the current from external source.

In this electrolytic cell, the oxidation occurs at anode that is a positive electrode and reduction occurs at cathode that is a negative electrode.

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

2NaCl(l)\rightarrow 2Na(l)+Cl_2(g)

On passing electricity in the molten NaCl, Na and chlorine gas are obtained at cathode and anode respectively.

The half-cell reaction are :

At cathode : 2Na^+2e^-\rightarrow 2Na    (Reduction)

At anode : 2Cl^-\rightarrow Cl_2+2e^-    (Oxidation)

Hence, from this we conclude that, Na(l) produced in the cell at the cathode, where reduction occurs.

The answer is (4) at the cathode, where reduction occurs. The Na+ gains one electron and become Na(l). So the reaction occurs at cathode and is reduction reaction.

If the concentration of Mg2+ in the solution were 0.039 M, what minimum [OH−] triggers precipitation of the Mg2+ ion? (Ksp=2.06×
Elodia [21]

Answer:

2.30 × 10⁻⁶ M

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Concentration of Mg²⁺ ([Mg²⁺]): 0.039 M

Solubility product constant of Mg(OH)₂ (Ksp): 2.06 × 10⁻¹³

Step 2: Write the reaction for the solution of Mg(OH)₂

Mg(OH)₂(s) ⇄ Mg²⁺(aq) + 2 OH⁻(aq)

Step 3: Calculate the minimum [OH⁻] required to trigger the precipitation of Mg²⁺ as Mg(OH)₂

We will use the following expression.

Ksp = 2.06 × 10⁻¹³ = [Mg²⁺] × [OH⁻]²

[OH⁻] = 2.30 × 10⁻⁶ M

Identify reagents necessary to convert cyclohexane into 1,3-cylohexadiene: notice that the starting material has no leaving grou
Vinvika [58]
<span>1,3-cylohexadiene i synthesized starting from cyclohexane in following 4 steps.

1) Free Radical Substitution Rxn:
 Halogenation of cyclohexane in the presence of UV yield chlorocyclohexane.

2) Elimination Rxn: Dehydrohalogenation of chlorocyclohexane yields cyclohexene.

3) Halogenation of Cyclohexene (Electrophillic Addition Rxn) gives 1,2-dihalocyclohexane.

4) Elemination Rxn: When dibromocyclohexane is treated with KOH and heated it gives 1,3-cyclohexadiene as shown below,</span>
