Answer:
Electrolytes are defined as those compounds which dissolve in a solvent such as water to produce a solution which conducts electric current easily.
Explanation:
Electrolytes are chemical compounds that dissolve in a solvent such as water and dissociate into ions (cations and anions) which helps to conduct electric current. They can be solids, liquids, or solutions and examples include all ionic compounds such as sodium chloride, calcium chloride, etc.
When electrodes are placed in a solution containing an electrolyte, the ions produced in the solution move from one electrode to the other. The negatively charged ions called anions are attracted to the positive electrode and the positively charged ions called cations are attracted to the negative electrode. This movement of ions generates an electric current. Electrolytes are also needed for the various electrochemical processes in living things and the main ions in these electrolytes are sodium (Na+), calcium (Ca2+), potassium (K+), magnesium (Mg2+), chloride (Cl-), etc.
Answer:
1) P₄ + 5O₂ → P₄O₁₀ redox reaction
2) P₄O₁₀ + 6H₂O → 4H₃PO₄ acid-base reaction
3) Ca₅(PO₄)₃F + 5H₂SO₄ → 3H₃PO₄ + HF + 5CaSO₄ precipitation reaction
Explanation:
The reactions that take place in the <u>electric furnace method</u> are:
1) P₄ + 5O₂ → P₄O₁₀
This is a redox reaction, because the oxidation state of the reactants is changed.
2) P₄O₁₀ + 6H₂O → 4H₃PO₄
This is an acid-base reaction, because there's an exchange of H⁺ species.
The reaction that takes place in the <u>wet process</u> is:
3) Ca₅(PO₄)₃F + 5H₂SO₄ → 3H₃PO₄ + HF + 5CaSO₄
This is an precipitation reaction, because a precipitate (a solid phase in a liquid phase) is formed.
