Purification of chromium can be achieved by electrorefining chromium from an impure chromium anode onto a pure chromium cathode

in an electrolytic cell. How many hours will it take to plate 13.5 kg of chromium onto the cathode if the current passed through the cell is held constant at 30.0 A ? Assume the chromium in the electrolytic solution is present as Cr 3 +.

Answer:

696 h

Explanation:

Let's consider the reduction of Cr³⁺.

Cr³⁺(aq) + 3e⁻ → Cr(s)

We can establish the following relations.

  • The molar mass of Cr is 52.0 g/mol.
  • 1 mol of Cr is deposited when 3 moles of e⁻ circulate.
  • 1 mole of e⁻ has a charge of 96468 c (Faraday's constant).
  • 1 A = 1 c/s
  • 1 h = 3600 s

<em>How many hours will it take to plate 13.5 kg of chromium onto the cathode if the current passed through the cell is held constant at 30.0 A?</em>

13.5 \times 10^{3} gCr.\frac{1molCr}{52.0gCr} .\frac{3mol/e^{-} }{1molCr} .\frac{96468c}{1mol/e^{-}} .\frac{1s}{30.0c} .\frac{1h}{3600s} =696 h

How many kilojoules of heat are released when 32.0 g of NaOH are dissolved in water? (The molar heat of solution of NaOH is –445
Katen [24]
The energy release when dissolving 1 mol of NaOH in water is 445.1 kJ
the mass of NaOH to be dissolved is 32.0 g
The number of NaOH moles in 32.0 g - 32.0 g / 40 g/mol =  0.8 mol
the energy released whilst dissolving 1 mol of NaOH - 445.1 kJ
when dissolving 0.8 mol - the energy released is 445.1 kJ/mol x 0.8 mol
therefore heat released is - 356.08 kJ
answer is -356.08 kJ

How many grams are in .11 moles of Cu
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

m= 6.9905 = 7 g

Explanation:

The formula is m= M.n

m= mass (g), M= Molar mass (g/mole), n= moles (moles)

Molar mass of Cu is 63.55

=) m= 63.55*0.11

   m= 6.9905 = 7 g

Which one of the following would have the largest dispersion forces?
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

A) CH3CH2SH

Explanation:

Dispersion forces are weak attractions found between non-polar and polar molecules. The attractions here can be attributed to the fact that a  non-polar molecule sometimes become polar because the constant motion of its electrons may lead to an uneven charge distribution at an instant. If this happens, the molecule has a temporary dipole. This dipole can induce the neighbouring molecules to be distorted and form dipoles as well. The attractions between these dipoles constitute the Dispersion Forces.

Therefore; the greater the molar mass of a compound or molecule, the higher the Dispersion Force. This implies that the compound or molecule with the highest molar mass have the largest dispersion forces.

Now; for option (A)

CH3CH2SH

The molar mass is :

= (12 + (1 × 3 ) +12 + (1 ×2) + 32+1)

= (12 + 3+ 12 + 2 + 32 + 1)

= 62 g/mol

For option (B)

CH3NH2

The molar mass is:

= (12 + (1 ×  3 ) +14 + (1 ×  2)

= (12 + 3 + 14 + 2)

= 31 g/mol

For option (C)

CH4

The molar mass is :

= 12 + (1 × 4)

= 12 + 4

= 16 g/mol

For option (D)

CH3CH3

The molar mass is :

= 12 + ( 1 × 3 ) + 12 + ( 1 × 3)

= 12 + 3 + 12 + 3

= 30 g/mol

Thus ; option (A) has the highest molar mass, as such the largest dispersion force is A) CH3CH2SH

During an endothermic phase change, what happens to the potential energy and the kinetic energy?
antiseptic1488 [7]

During endothermic phase change, the potential energy of the system always increases while the kinetic energy of the system remains constant. The potential energy of the reaction increases because energy is been added to the system from the external environment.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Those are three distinct methods for demonstrating a specific energy condition of an object. They don't affect one another.
  • "Potential Energy" is a relative term showing a release of possible energy to the environment. If we accept its pattern as the overall energy state of a compound, at that point, an endothermic phase change would infer an increase in "potential" as energy is being added to the compound by the system.
  • A phase change will display an increase in the kinetic energy at whatever point the compound is transforming from a high density to a low dense phase. The kinetic energy will decrease at whatever point the compound is transforming from a less dense to high dense phase.
