 <span>moles water = 850.0 g / 18.02 g/mol=47.2 
moles Mg2+ = 0.400 
moles Cl- = 2 x 0.400 = 0.800 
moles ions = 0.400 + 0.800= 1.2 
mole fraction ions = 1.2 / 1.2 + 47.2 =0.0248</span>

Answer : The mole fraction of the total ions in an aqueous solution is 0.0248

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of water.

\text{Moles of water}=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{\text{Molar mass of water}}=\frac{850.0g}{18g/mole}=47.22moles

Now we have to calculate the moles of magnesium ion and bromide ion.

As we are given that 0.4 moles of MgBr_2 that means, there are 0.4 moles of magnesium ion and 0.8 moles of bromide ions.

Total mole of ions in an aqueous solution = 0.4 + 0.8 = 1.2 mole

Now we have to calculate the mole fraction of the total ions in an aqueous solution.

\chi_{\text{(Total ions)}}=\frac{n_{\text{(Total ions)}}}{n_{\text{(Total ions)}}+n_{water}}

\text{Mole fraction of total ions in an aqueous solution}=\frac{1.2mole}{1.2mole+47.22mole}=0.0248

Therefore, the mole fraction of the total ions in an aqueous solution is 0.0248

how does photosynthesis and respiration in plants influence the amount of co2 in the atmosphere during a year?
Oliga [24]

Answer:

An increase in the amount of CO2 well increase the rate of photosynthesis, Carbon dioxide concentration will directly affect the rate of photosynthesis as it is used in the photosynthesis reaction.Increased amount of CO2 will increase the rate of photosynthesis to a certain limit, after which a further increase in its amount will no longer increase the rate any further.

Hope this helps.

Cheers! :)

Aluminum is manufactured using electrolysis. Carbon electrodes are used. Describe the nature of the electrolyte.​
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

The traditional electrolyte for aluminium electrolysis is based on molten cryolite (Na3AlF6), acting as solvent for the raw material, alumina (Al2O3).Metals are found in ores combined with other elements. Electrolysis can be used to extract a more reactive metal from the ore.

Aluminum can and is used as both anodes and cathodes in electrochemical cells, but there are some peculiarities to using it as an anode in aqueous solutions. As you note, aluminum forms a passivating oxide layer quite readily, even by exposure to atmosphere. In an aqueous solution, if the potential is high enough, OH− and O2− are generated at the anode, which can then react with the aluminum to produce aluminum oxide. Al^3+ can also be generated directly. The electric field will draw the anions through the growing aluminum oxide layer towards the aluminum surface and the Al^3+ towards the solution, making the oxide layer grow both away from the electrode surface and into the surface of the electrode. In this way, coatings thicker than the normal passivation in air can be produced. However, aluminum oxide is a good electrical insulator, thus if a dense non-porous layer is grown, it will become impossible to pass current through it and growth will stop, leaving a relatively thin oxide layer (this is how the dielectric layers in electrolytic capacitors are made). This is the normal behaviour in aqueous solutions at near-neutral pH (5–7).

However, if a thick aluminum oxide layer is desired (e.g. to produce coatings on aluminum parts for dying or durability), maintaining porosity is necessary to avoid completely blocking access to the surface. One technique that is commonly used is using a low pH solution, which tends to redissolve some of the oxide and neutralize some of the formed OH−, leaving pores in the oxide layer through which the ions can travel and continue to react. These pores also give a good structure to retain dyes or lubricants, but generally need to be sealed after to protect against corrosion.

A galvanic cell at a temperature of 25.0°C is powered by the following redox reaction:
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

2.01V ( To three significant digits)

Explanation:

First we show the standard reduction potentials of Cu2+(aq)/Cu(s) system and Al3+(aq)/Al(s) system. We can clearly see from the balanced redox reaction equation that aluminium is the anode and was the oxidized specie while copper is the cathode and was the reduced specie. This observation is necessary when substituting values of concentration into the Nernst equation.

The next thing to do is to obtain the standard cell potential as shown in the image attached and subsequently substitute values of concentration and standard cell potential into the Nernst equation as shown. This gives the cell potential under the given conditions.
