Answer:

  • aqueous LiBr → hydrogen gas
  • molten LiBr → solid lithium
  • Aqueous AgBr → solid silver
  • molten AgBr → solid silver

Explanation:

Electrolysis is a process in which an electric current is passed through an electrolyte in an electrolytic cell. The electrolyte maybe in <em>aqueous form or in molten state. </em>The electrolyte is an ionic compound, so during electrolysis, the anions move towards anode while the cations move towards the cathode. Oxidation takes place at the anode. While reduction takes place at the cathode.

In the molten form, only the constituent ions are present to be oxidized or reduced. Thus, in electrolysis of molten LiBr, lithium is reduced at the cathode and bromine is oxidized at the anode.

Li^{+}(aq) + e^{-} → Li(s)

Solid Lithium is produced at the cathode

Similarly, solid Silver is produced at the cathode during electrolysis of molten AgBr:

Ag^{+}(aq) + e^{-} → Ag(s)

However, in aqueous form, H_{2} O ions and LiBr ions compete with each other. Since H+ has a greater standard redox potential than lithium,H+ will be reduced at the cathode to produce hydrogen gas

2H^{+}(aq) + 2e^{-} → H_{2}(g)

Similarly,in aqueous AgBr, Ag will be produced at the cathode because the standard redox potential for Ag+ is higher than H+ .

Ag^{+}(aq) + e^{-} → Ag(s)

having that coloration is selected for since many predators will recognize it and stay away. Therefore the common coloration is
garri49 [273]

Answer: Natural selection.

Explanation:

The natural selection is the process by which the organism that best suits the characters will survive and the organism which cannot adapt the changes will die.

The predators feed on their prey and the organism which hides easily in the environment due to its color is safe and the animals that cannot camouflage will die.

This is natural selection that more favored character is carried out over generations and other that cannot survive die.

Magnesium (average atomic mass = 24.3050 amu) consists of three isotopes with masses 23.9850 amu, 24.9858 amu, and 25.9826 amu.
iris [78.8K]

Answer: The first isotope has a relative abundance of 79% and last isotope has a relative abundance of 11%

Explanation: Given that the average atomic mass(M) of magnesium

= 24.3050amu

Mass of first isotope (M1) = 23.9850amu

Mass of middle isotope (M2)=24.9858amu

Mass of last isotope(M3)= 25.9826amu

Total abundance = 1

Abundance of middle isotope = 0.10

Let abundance of first and last isotope be x and y respectively.

x+0.10+y =1

x = 0.90-y

M = M1 × % abundance of first isotope + M2 × % of middle isotope +M3 ×% of last isotope

24.03050= 23.985× x + 24.9858 ×0.10 + 25.9826×y

Substitute x= 0.90-y

Then

y = 0.11

Since y=0.11, then

x= 0.90-0.11

x=0.79

Therefore the relative abundance of the first isotope = 11% and the relative abundance of the last isotope = 79%
