A solution containing 1.0 M NiCl2 and 1.0 M SnBr2 undergoes electrolysis by passing a current between two platinum electrodes. W

hat are the most likely first products to be formed? Cl2 (aq) + 2e- → 2Cl- (aq) ℰ°= 1.36 V Br2 (aq) + 2e- → 2Br- (aq) ℰ° =1.08 V Sn2+ (aq) + 2e- → Sn(s) ℰ° = -0.14 V Ni2+ (aq) + 2e- → Ni(s) ℰ°= -0.24 V

Answer:

Sn2+ (aq) + 2e- → Sn(s) ℰ° = -0.14 V

Explanation:

A close look at all the options shows that the most feasible first reaction is the reduction of tin II ion to ordinary metallic tin.

Given the two half cells, nickel is oxidized in one half cell to Ni II while in the second half cell, tin II ion is reduced to metallic tin. The platinum electrodes simply act as electron conduits in the cell.

15g of magnesium (II) oxide decomposes, find the number of oxygen particles produced at 100% yield.
erastova [34]

2.258625 *10²³ oxygen atoms will be produced.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Decomposition reaction is defined as the type of reaction where one single reactant breaks to produce more than one product only by means of heat or other external factor.

Formula of magnesium oxide = MgO.

The molecular mass of magnesium oxide = 24 +16= 40.

So in 40 grams of magnesium oxide, number of molecules is 6.023 * 10²³.

So in 15 grams of magnesium oxide,, number of molecules is 6.023 *1023 * 15/40 = 2.258625 *10²³.

From one molecule of magnesium oxide, one oxide atom will be produced.

So number of oxide atoms with 100% yeild = 2.258625 *10²³
