During the electrolysis of the molten lithium chloride, the Lithium ions (Li⁺) at the cathode undergoes reduction, and the electron configuration of lithium becomes 1s²2s¹.
<h3>What is electrolysis?</h3>
Electrolysis can be described as the process in which the electric current is passed through the chemical compound to break them. In this process, the atoms and ions are interchanged by the addition or removal of electrons.
The ions are allowed to move freely in this process. When an ionic compound is melted or dissolved in water then ions are produced which can move freely.
During the electrolysis of molten lithium chloride, the lithium ions reach the cathode and accept the electrons while chloride ions reach at anode and loss electrons to become chlorine gas.
At anode : 2 Cl⁻ → Cl₂ + 2e⁻
At cathode: 2 Li⁺ + 2e⁻ → Li

Oxidation state of I is (-1) and for CO it is zero. Let's assume that the oxidation state of Fe in Fe(CO)₄I₂<span> (s) is x. For whole compound, the charge is zero.
Sum of oxidation numbers in all elements = Charge of the compound.
Here we have 1Fe , 4CO and 2I
hence we can find the oxidation state as;
x + 4*0 + 2*(-1) = 0
x + 0 - 2 = 0
x = +2
Hence the oxidation state of Fe in product </span>Fe(CO)₄I₂ (s) is +2.
Same as we can find the oxidation state (y) of Fe in Fe(CO)₅(s).
y + 5*0 = 0
y = 0
Since oxidation state of Fe increased from 0 to +2, the oxidized element is Fe in the given reaction.
Answer: 4.21×10⁻⁸
Explanation:
1) Assume a general equation for the ionization of the weak acid:
Let HA be the weak acid, then the ionization equation is:
HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻
2) Then, the expression for the ionization constant is:
Ka = [H⁺][A⁻] / [HA]
There, [H⁺] = [A⁻], and [HA] = 0.150 M (data given)
3) So, you need to determine [H⁺] which you do from the pH.
By definition, pH = - log [H⁺]
And from the data given pH = 4.1
⇒ 4.10 = - log [H⁺] ⇒ [H⁺] = antilog (- 4.10) = 7.94×10⁻⁵
4) Now you have all the values to calculate the expression for Ka:
ka = 7.94×10⁻⁵ × 7.94×10⁻⁵ / 0.150 = 4.21×10⁻⁸
The symbol %v/v means percent by volume. Assuming there is no volume effects when these substances are mixed, we calculate as follows:
% v/v = (25 mL ethanol / 25 mL + 150 mL ) x 100
%v/v = 14.29 mL ethanol / mL solution
Hope this answers the question.
The answer would be Force
