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.

Ag^+ +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.

PV = nRT 
R = 0.0821 L * atm / mol * K 
(ideal gas constant) 

First, convert 735 torr to atm. Divide by 760. 
(1 atm = 760 torr) 

735 torr * 1 atm / 760 torr = 0.967 atm 
Then, convert 37 C to Kelvin. Just add 273. 
37 C = 310K 

n = PV / RT 
= (0.967)(2.07) / (0.0821)(310) 
= 0.0786 mol 

<span>0.0786 mol * 6.02 * 10^23 molecules / 1 mol = 4.73 * 10^22 molecules </span>

When ethyl-2-methylpropanoate is treated with sodium ethoxide in ethanol, there is no observable reaction. Explain this observat
den301095 [7]

Answer:

No net change in reaction occurs in this nucleophilic acyl subtitution reaction

Explanation:

Sodium ethoxide in ethanol gives nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction with ethyl-2-methylpropanoate.

Here ethoxide group replaces an ethoxide group from ester through addition-ellimination pathway.

So, ultimately, the product of this reaction is identical with reactant i.e. ethyl-2-methylpropanoate is reproduced.

Hence one might observe no change during reaction as product and reactant of this reaction are same.

Mechanistic pathway has been shown below.
