Answer:

HCl

Explanation:

The best solvent for NaF is a polar liquid. The only liquid having a significant dipole moment among the options is HCl due to the large electro negativity difference between hydrogen and chlorine.

The polar solvent can interact with the NaF via its dipoles such that the NaF dissolves due to ion-dipole interaction.

How much time would it take for 336 mg of copper to be plated at a current of 5.6 A ? Express your answer using two significant

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

1.8 × 10² s

Explanation:

Let's consider the reduction that occurs upon the electroplating of copper.

Cu²⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻ ⇒ Cu(s)

We will establish the following relationships:

1 g = 1,000 mg
The molar mass of Cu is 63.55 g/mol
When 1 mole of Cu is deposited, 2 moles of electrons circulate.
The charge of 1 mole of electrons is 96,486 C (Faraday's constant).
1 A = 1 C/s

The time that it would take for 336 mg of copper to be plated at a current of 5.6 A is:

$336mgCu \times \frac{1gCu}{1,000mgCu} \times \frac{1molCu}{63.55gCu} \times \frac{2mole^{-} }{1molCu} \times \frac{94,486C}{1mole^{-}} \times \frac{1s}{5.6C} = 1.8 \times 10^{2} s$
