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

Tamiku [17]
F₂ + 2 NaI → 2 NaF + I₂
<span>It is given that F₂ is light yellow / colorless in hydrocarbon solvent. The student combines Fluorine water with NaI in water. Then student adds pentane in the mixture of F₂ and NaI. After dissolution, solution was observed and a colorless pentane layer was seen. Alkanes are unreactive in nature. The C-H bond in alkane is difficult to break. whereas, F₂ is very reactive and reacts vigorously with alkanes in presence of light by free radical mechanism.It is given that the color of the solution is nearly colorless. F₂ when present in hydrocarbon solvent is light yellow/ colorless/ nearly colorless. Hence, F₂ is not reacting with hydrocarbon and there is no reaction taking place (No F</span>₂ is present<span>)</span>
