Electrolysis takes place when an electric current passes through water.
Answer:
Element Symbol Mass Percent
Cuprum Cu 66.464%
Sulfur S 33.537%
Explanation:
I got this out of my module, sorry if it's wrong but i am pretty sure 97% this is correct!
KOH+ HNO3--> KNO3+ H2O<span>
From this balanced equation, we know that 1 mol
HNO3= 1 mol KOH (keep in mind this because it will be used later).
We also know that 0.100 M KOH aqueous
solution (soln)= 0.100 mol KOH/ 1 L of KOH soln (this one is based on the
definition of molarity).
First, we should find the mole of KOH:
100.0 mL KOH soln* (1 L KOH soln/
1,000 mL KOH soln)* (0.100 mol KOH/ 1L KOH soln)= 1.00*10^(-2) mol KOH.
Now, let's find the volume of HNO3 soln:
1.00*10^(-2) mol KOH* (1 mol HNO3/ 1 mol KOH)* (1 L HNO3 soln/ 0.500 mol HNO3)* (1,000 mL HNO3 soln/ 1 L HNO3 soln)= 20.0 mL HNO3 soln.
The final answer is </span>(2) 20.0 mL.<span>
Also, this problem can also be done by using
dimensional analysis.
Hope this would help~

Answer:
D. The electron-withdrawing fluorine atoms pull electron density from the oxygen in trifluoroacetate. The negative charge is more stabilized in trifluoroacetate by this effect.
Explanation:
The structures of trifluoroacetate and acetic acid are both shown in the image attached.
The trifluoroacetate anion (CF3CO2-), just like the acetate anion has in the middle, two oxygen atoms.
However, in the trifluoroacetate anion, there are also three electronegative fluorine atoms attached to the nearby carbon atom attached to the carbonyl, and these pull some electron density through the sigma bonding network away from the oxygen atoms, thereby spreading out the negative charge further. This effect, called the "inductive effect" stabilizes the anion formed,the trifouoroacetate anion is thus more stabilized than the acetate anion.
Hence, trifluoroacetic acid is a stronger acid than acetic acid, having a pKa of -0.18.
