Answer:

The transmittance is the amount of energy that a body goes through in a certain amount of time without being absorbed and the absorbance is the amount of light that is absorbed by a solution.

There is no difference between absorptivity and molar absorptivity because the two terms express the same idea, because molar absorptivity is the absorbance of a solution per unit path length and concentration, so that the absorbance is proportional to concentration.

Be sure to answer all parts. In the electrolysis of molten BaI2, (a) What product forms at the negative electrode? (b) What prod

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

(a) Barium is produced at the negative electrode

(b) Iodine is produced at the positive electrode

Explanation:

When an electric current is passed through a solution containing electrolyte, a non spontaneous reaction is stimulated. This results in the flow of positively charged ions to negatively charged electrodes(cathode) and negatively charged ions to positively charged electrodes(anode)

When an electric current is passed through molten $BaI_{2}$ in the electrolytic cell, the following reactions takes place:

$BaI_{2}$ → $Ba^{2+}$ + 2 $I^{-}$

At the anode;

Iodine ions will lose an electron and will be oxidized to iodine

$2I^{-}$ → $I_{2}$ + $e^{-}$

At the cathode;

Barium ions gains electrons and its reduced to barium metal

$Ba^{2+}$ + $2e^{-}$ → Ba

Metal ore has other elements in it as well. Also sediment and stone might cover the ore. We don't want to have a phone with sediment on it do we? thus these few reasons are why.
