Purification of chromium can be achieved by electrorefining chromium from an impure chromium anode onto a pure chromium cathode

in an electrolytic cell. How many hours will it take to plate 11.5 kg of chromium onto the cathode if the current passed through the cell is held constant at 38.0 A ? Assume the chromium in the electrolytic solution is present as Cr3+ .

Answer:

468 h

Explanation:

Let's consider the reduction of chromium (III) to chromium that occurs in the electrolytic purification.

Cr³⁺ + 3 e⁻ → Cr

We can establish the following relations.

  • 1 kg = 1,000 g
  • The molar mass of Cr is 52.00 g/mol
  • 1 mole of Cr is deposited when 3 moles of electrons circulate
  • The charge of 1 mole of electrons is 96,468 c (Faraday's constant)
  • 1 A = 1 c/s
  • 1 h = 3,600 s

The hours that will take to plate 11.5 kg of chromium onto the cathode if the current passed through the cell is held constant at 38.0 A is:

11.5kgCr \times \frac{1,000gCr}{1kgCr} \times \frac{1molCr}{52.00gCr} \times \frac{3mole^{-} }{1molCr} \times \frac{96,468c}{1mole^{-}}  \times \frac{1s}{38.0c} \times \frac{1h}{3,600s} = 468 h

use the equation 2C4H10 +13O2--&gt;8CO2+10H2O to find how many moles of oxygen would react with .425 mol C4H10
antoniya [11.8K]
2C4H10 + 13O2  →  8CO2 + 10H2O Since the equation is balanced, we can set up a proportion: 13 moles of O2 react with 2 moles of C4H10x  moles of O2 react with 0.425 moles of C4H10 13 → 2x → 0.425 x = 13 * 0.425 / 2 = 2.7625 <span>2.7625 moles of O2 react with 0.425 moles of C4H10</span>

A penny has a mass of 2.50g and the Moon has a mass of ×7.351022kg, How many moles of pennies have a mass equal to the mass of t
baherus [9]
Answer: 122 moles

Procedure:

1) Convert all the units to the same unit

2) mass of a penny = 2.50 g

3) mass of the Moon = 7.35 * 10^22 kg (I had to arrage your numbers because it was wrong).

=> 7.35 * 10^22 kg * 1000 g / kg = 7.35 * 10^ 25 g.

4) find how many times the mass of a penny is contained in the mass of the Moon.

You have to divide the mass of the Moon by the mass of a penny

7.35 * 10^ 25 g / 2.50 g = 2.94 * 10^25 pennies

That means that 2.94 * 10^ 25 pennies have the mass of the Moon, which you can check by mulitiplying the mass of one penny times the number ob pennies: 2.50 g * 2.94 * 10^25 = 7.35 * 10^25.

5) Convert the number of pennies into mole unit. That is using Avogadros's number: 6.022 * 10^ 23

7.35 * 10^ 25 penny * 1 mol / (6.022 * 10^ 23 penny) = 1.22* 10^ 2 mole = 122 mol.

Answer: 122 mol

The effectiveness of a chemical sanitizer can be limited by
Serjik [45]

Chemical sanitizer effectiveness, decreases with increase in pH . And most soap and detergent are alkaline in nature, that limits its effectiveness. So they should be rinsed off completely for proper effectiveness of santizer. So improper rinsing limits the effectiveness of a sanitizer.

So , the answer is improper rinsing after that still a detergent residue remains limits the effectiveness of sanitizer.
