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+

One liter of a buffer composed of 1.2 m hno2 and 0.8 m nano2 is mixed with 400 ml of 0.5 m naoh. what is the new ph? assume the
enyata [817]
Answer is: 3,4
Chemical reaction: HNO₂ + NaOH → NaNO₂ + H₂O.
c₀(HNO₂) = 1,2 M = 1,2 mol/dm³.
c₀(NaNO₂) = 0,8 M = 0,8 mol/dm³.
V₀(HNO₂) = V₀(NaNO₂)  = 1 dm³ = 1 L.
c₀(NaOH) = 0,5 M = 0,5 mol/dm³.
n₀(HNO₂)= 1,2 mol/dm³ · 1 dm³ = 1,2 mol.
n₀(NaNO₂) = 0,8 mol/dm³ · 1 dm³ = 0,8 mol.
V(NaOH) = 400 mL · 0,001 dm³/mL = 0,4 dm³.
n₀(NaOH) = c₀(NaOH) · V₀(NaOH).
n₀(NaOH) = 0,5 mol/dm³ · 0,4 dm³ = 0,2 mol.
n(HNO₂) = 1,2 mol - 0,2 mol = 1 mol.
n(NaNO₂) = 0,8 mol + 0,2 mol = 1 mol.
c(HNO₂) = 1 mol ÷ 1,4 dm³ = 0,714 mol/dm³.
c(NaNO₂) = 1 mol ÷ 1,4 dm³ = 0,714 mol/dm³.
pH = pKa + log (c(HNO₂) / c(NaNO₂)).
pH = 3,4 + log (0,714 mol/dm³ / 0,714 mol/dm³) = 3,4.

`we discussed benzene rings in this lesson. so, consider the compound chlorobenzene. how many carbon atoms would it have?
Aloiza [94]
Chlorobenzene would essentially be a benzene ring that is substituted with chlorine. Thus it would have 6 carbon atoms, in its molecular formula.

just olya [345]

Answer:

Explanation:

Any substance that contains only one kind of an atom is known as an element. Because atoms cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction, elements such as phosphorus (P4) or sulfur (S8) cannot be broken down into simpler substances by these reactions.

Example: Water decomposes into a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen when an electric current is passed through the liquid. Hydrogen and oxygen, on the other hand, cannot be decomposed into simpler substances. They are therefore the elementary, or simplest, chemical substances - elements.

Each element is represented by a unique symbol. The notation for each element can be found on the periodic table of elements.

The elements can be divided into three categories that have characteristic properties: metals, nonmetals, and semimetals. Most elements are metals, which are found on the left and toward the bottom of the periodic table. A handful of nonmetals are clustered in the upper right corner of the periodic table. The semimetals can be found along the dividing line between the metals and the nonmetals.
