Answer:

2Al2O3 (l) ---> 4Al (l) + 3O2 (g)

Explanation:

The reaction is the electrolysis of aluminium oxide. It decomposes aluminium oxide (Al2O3) into aluminium metal (Al) and Oxygen (O2). In this process, aluminium oxide is molten (liquid state) so that ions can move to complete the electricity circuit.

Al2O3 (l) ---> Al (l) + O2 (g)

Balance the equation:

2Al2O3 (l) ---> 4Al (l) + 3O2 (g)

29. What is E for a system which has the following two steps:
jasenka [17]

Answer:

Zero

Explanation:

Recall that;

E = q + w

Where;

q = heat, w = work done

When heat is absorbed by the system q is positive

When heat is evolved by the system q is negative

When the system does work, w is negative

When work is done on the system w is positive

Step 1

ΔE1= 60 KJ + 40 KJ = 100KJ

Step 2

ΔE2= (-30 KJ) + (-70 KJ) = (-100) KJ

ΔE1 + ΔE2= 100KJ + (-100) KJ = 0KJ
