Doing an experiment about electroplating, you attempt to coat silver in gold using a basic electroplating set-up. You take the m

ass of the silver before and after the experiment. What can you say about the mass of the silver/gold product at the end of the experiment?
a. it’s mass was greater than when it started

b. it’s mass was lower than when it started

Answer:

it’s mass was greater than when it started

Explanation:

When a metal is coated with another metal, the plating metal deposits on the plated metal. Usually, the plating metal functions as the anode while the plated metal functions on the cathode. The anode metal is oxidized and reduced at the cathode and become deposited on the cathode material. This increases the mass of the cathode. Hence the mass of the silver/gold product is greater than the mass of silver at the beginning of the electroplating process.

Which is an example of chemical weathering?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

b. the layer of oxide formed on statues made of metal

Explanation:

Chemical weathering is a process whereby rocks are disintegrated or weathered causing a chemical reaction thereby leading to change in the parent rock constituents .

In chemical weathering a new substance is usually formed after the weathering takes place.

From the question the layer of statue made by metal will likely form oxides of those metals. Example Silver will react with oxygen to form an entirely new substance like silver(i)oxide.

a 125 g chunk of aluminum at 182 degrees Celsius was added to a bucket filled with 365 g of water at 22.0 degrees Celsius. Ignor
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

32.98°C

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given the following;

Mass of Aluminium as 125 g

Initial temperature of Aluminium as 182°C

Mass of water as 265 g

Initial temperature of water as 22°C

We are required to calculate the final temperature of the two compounds;

First, we need to know the specific heat capacity of each;

Specific heat capacity of Aluminium is 0.9 J/g°C

Specific heat capacity of water is 4.184 J/g°C

<h3>Step 1: Calculate the Quantity of heat gained by water.</h3>

Assuming the final temperature is X°C

we know, Q = mcΔT

Change in temperature, ΔT = (X-22)°C

therefore;

Q = 365 g × 4.184 J/g°C × (X-22)°C

    = (1527.16X-33,597.52) Joules

<h3>Step 2: Calculate the quantity of heat released by Aluminium </h3>

Using the final temperature, X°C

Change in temperature, ΔT = -(X°- 182°)C (negative because heat was lost)

Therefore;

Q = 125 g × 0.90 J/g°C × (182°-X°)C

  = (20,475- 112.5X) Joules

<h3>Step 3: Calculating the final temperature</h3>

We need to know that the heat released by aluminium is equal to heat absorbed by water.

Therefore;

(20,475- 112.5X) Joules = (1527.16X-33,597.52) Joules

Combining the like terms;

1639.66X = 54072.52

             X = 32.978°C

                = 32.98°C

Therefore, the final temperature of the two compounds will be 32.98°C
