Answer:

1.8 × 10² s

Explanation:

Let's consider the reduction that occurs upon the electroplating of copper.

Cu²⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻ ⇒ Cu(s)

We will establish the following relationships:

  • 1 g = 1,000 mg
  • The molar mass of Cu is 63.55 g/mol
  • When 1 mole of Cu is deposited, 2 moles of electrons circulate.
  • The charge of 1 mole of electrons is 96,486 C (Faraday's constant).
  • 1 A = 1 C/s

The time  that it would take for 336 mg of copper to be plated at a current of 5.6 A is:

336mgCu \times \frac{1gCu}{1,000mgCu} \times \frac{1molCu}{63.55gCu} \times \frac{2mole^{-} }{1molCu} \times \frac{94,486C}{1mole^{-}} \times \frac{1s}{5.6C} = 1.8 \times 10^{2} s

Which of the following is not an example of a polymer? (2 points)
ahrayia [7]
Answer is "sucrose".

Polymer is a large molecule which is made from repeating units. The smallest repeating unit is called as monomer. <span>Polystyrene, nylon and PVC are examples for polymers. But sucrose is a disaccharide which is made from glucose and fructose. Hence, sucrose is not an example of polymer. </span>
