<em>The cathode is Y</em>

<h3><em>Further explanation</em></h3>

Electrolysis uses electrical energy to carry out redox reactions that are not spontaneous.

The ions in the solution flowing electrically will move towards to opposite charge of the electrode

The electrolysis material is an electrolyte which can be a solution or a melt.

In positive pole electrolysis cells - the anode is the site of the oxidation reaction, while the negative pole - the cathode is the reduction reaction site.

The result of the reaction in the anode is based on a substance that easily oxidized while the reaction in the cathode is based on a substance that easily reduced.

Electrons (electricity) enter an electrolysis cell through the negative pole (cathode)

The negative ion from the solution will move towards the positive electrode and release the electrons around the positive electrode (oxidation) and the electrons flow to the negative pole

Whereas around the negative electrode, there is electron binding and a reduction reaction occurs

So if we see the picture the cathode is Y

The specific heat of gold is 0.031 calories/gram°C. If 10.0 grams of gold were heated and the temperature of the sample

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

6.2 calories

Explanation:

Data Given:

change in temperature = 20 °C

specific heat of gold = 0.031 calories/gram °C

mass of gold = 10.0 grams

Amount of Heat = ?

Solution:

Formula used

Q = Cs.m.ΔT

Where:

Q = amount of heat

Cs = specific heat of gold = 0.031 calories/gram °C

m = mass

ΔT = Change in temperature

Put values in above equation

Q = 0.031 calories/gram °C x 10.0 g x 20 °C

Q = 6.2 calories

So option A is correct = 6.2 calories

The following information is to be used for the next 2 questions. In order to analyze for Mg and Ca, a 24-hour urine sample was

Ainat [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

The concentration of metal ions are:

$[Ca^{2+}]= \dfrac{0.003474 \ M \times 20.49 \ mL}{10.0 \ mL}$

$[Ca^{2+}]=0.007118 \ M$

$[Mg^2+] = \dfrac{0.003474 \ M\times (26.23 - 20.49 )mL}{10.0 \ mL}$

$=0.001994 \ M$

Mass of Ca²⁺ in 2.00 L urine sample is:

$= 2.00 L \times 0.001994 \dfrac{mol}{L} \times \dfrac{40.08 \ g}{1 \ mol}$

= 0.1598 g

Mass of Ca²⁺ = 159.0 mg

Mass of Mg²⁺ in 2.00 L urine sample is:

$= 2.00 L \times 0.007118 \dfrac{mol}{L} \times \dfrac{24.31 \ g}{1 \ mol}$

= 0.3461 g

Mass of Mg²⁺ = 346.1 mg
