An unknown metal forms a soluble compound, M(NO3)2, which then undergoes electrolysis with an applied current of 2.50 amperes. I

f the current is applied for 22.6 min, 1.87 g of metal is deposited. a. Is the metal deposited at the anode or cathode? b. Draw the reaction that occurs at the other electrode, where the metal is NOT being deposited. c. Calculate the molar mass of the metal M. What is the metal? d. Which halogen(s) could react with M to spontaneously oxidize it back to its 2+ cation?

Answer:

The metal is the cathode

The metal is palladium

At the other cathode, the reaction going on is

M(s) ------> M2^+(aq) + 2e

Chlorine can spontaneously react with Pd converting it to Pd^2+

The molar mass of the metal is 106.4 g of M

Explanation:

Given the formula of the compound, M^2+ ion is involved. The equation of the reaction is;

M^2+(aq) + 2e -------------> M(s)

The number of moles of electrons transferred = 2 moles

1 mole of electron = 96500C

And Q= It

Where I= current

t= time taken in seconds

Now;

x g of the metal (its molar mass) is deposited by 2×96500 C

1.87 g of the metal is deposited by (2.50× 22.6×60) C

x = 1.87 × 2×96500/ 2.50 × 22.6 × 60

x= 360910/3390

x= 106.4 g of M

The metal is the cathode

The metal is palladium

At the other cathode, the reaction going on is

M(s) ------> M2^+(aq) + 2e

Chlorine can spontaneously react with Pd converting it to Pd^2+

You measure the absorbance of your extracted curcumin solution and realize that the solution is too concentrated. What made you
zepelin [54]

If the absorbance of a solution of curcumin which is too concentrated is measured, the absorbance will be unusually high.

Spectrometry measures the interaction of light with molecules. The absorbance refers to how much light that interacts with molecules of the substance. The more the concentration of the substance the higher the absorbance of the solution.

Hence, if  the absorbance of a solution of curcumin which is too concentrated is measured, the absorbance will be unusually high. An unusually high absorbance tells us that the solution is too concentrated.

Which type of bond is present in hydrogen sulfide (H2S)? The table of electronegativities is given
LuckyWell [14K]

Bonds formed between atoms can be classified as ionic and covalent

Ionic bonds are formed between atoms that have a high difference in the electronegativity values.

In contrast, bonds formed between atoms that have a difference in electronegativity lower than the ionic counterparts are polar covalent bonds.  If the atoms have very similar electronegativities, they form non-polar covalent bonds.

In H2S, the S atom is bonded to 2 H atoms. The electronegativity of H = 2.2 and S= 2.56. Since the difference is not high the bond formed will be covalent (polar covalent).

Calculate the molarity of hydroxide ion in an aqueous solution that has a poh of 5.00
Simora [160]

Answer:

1.00 x 10^-5 M

Explanation:

pOH=-log[OH^-]

so

[OH^-]=10^(-pOH)

=10^-5

=1.00 x 10^-5 M
