Silver can be electroplated at the cathode of an electrolysis cell by the half-reaction. Ag+(aq)+e−→Ag(s) Part A Silver can be e
1 answer:
Answer: Mass of silver deposited at the cathode is 37.1g
Explanation: According to Faraday Law of Electrolysis, the mass of substance deposited at the electrode (cathode or anode) is directly proportional to quantity of electricity passed through the electrolyte
Faraday has found that to liberate one gm eq. of substance from an electrolyte, 96500C of electricity is required.
+e− ==> Ag(s)
Given that
Current (I) = 8.5A
Time (t) = 65 *60 = 3900s
Quantity of electricity passed = 8.5*3900 =33150C
Molar mass of Ag= 108g
96500C will liberate 108g
33150C will liberate Xg
Xg= (108*33150)/96500
=37.1g
Therefore the mass of Ag deposited at the cathode is 37.1g.

Answer:
Two possible compounds are shown below- one with an exocyclic double bond and another one with an endocyclic double bond
Explanation:
Reaction of alkene with gives a complex of mercurous ion.
Then water molecule attacks this complex through type reaction at more substituted position.
cleaves the resultant C-Hg bond and forms a C-H bond.
Two possible structures of an alkene is possible to yield 1-methylcyclohexanol which are shown below.
