Number of Hydrogen evolved
Solution
Electrolysis of water ⇒ decomposition reaction of water into Oxygen and Hydrogen gas.
Cathode(reduction-negative pole) : 2H₂O(l)+2e⁻ ⇒ H₂(g)+2OH⁻(aq)
Anode(oxidation-positive pole) : 2H₂O(l)⇒O₂(g)+4H⁻(aq)+4e⁻
Total reaction : 2H₂O(l)⇒2H₂(g)+O₂(g)
So at the cathode H₂ gas is produced
Faraday : 1 mole of electrons (e⁻) contains a charge of 96,500 C
Q = i.t
Q = 1.5 x 5400
Q = 8100 C
mol e⁻ = 8100 : 96500 = 0.084
From equation at cathode , mol ratio e⁻ : H₂ = 2 : 1, so mol H₂ = 0.042
Answer : The value of new volume is, 50.0 mL
Explanation :
Boyle's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.
or,
where,
= initial pressure at STP = 1 atm
= final pressure = 4.00 atm
= initial volume at STP = 200.0 mL
= final volume = ?
Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:
Therefore, the value of new volume is, 50.0 mL
