Answer:

44.7 kWh

Explanation:

Let's consider the reduction of Al₂O₃ to Al in the Bayer process.

6 e⁻ + 3 H₂O + Al₂O₃ → 2 Al + 6 OH⁻

We can establish the following relations:

  • The molar mass of Al is 26.98 g/mol.
  • 2 moles of Al are produced when 6 moles of e⁻ circulate.
  • 1 mol of e⁻ has a charge of 96468 c (Faraday's constant).
  • 1 V = 1 J/c
  • 1 kWh = 3.6 × 10⁶ J

When the applied electromotive force is 5.00 V, the energy required to produce 3.00 kg (3.00 × 10³ g) of aluminum is:

3.00 \times 10^{3} gAl.\frac{1molAl}{26.98gAl} .\frac{6mole^{-}}{2molAl}.\frac{96468c}{1mole^{-}}.\frac{5.00J}{c}.\frac{1kWh}{3.6 \times 10^{6}J} =44.7kWh

Which electron configuration represents the electrons of an atom in an excited state? * 2-3 2-7-1 2-8 2-8-1​
Lemur [1.5K]

2-7-1

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Electrons can move the shell up or down by releasing energy or absorbing energy  

Excited electrons show higher electron transfer to the shell by absorbing energy  

So it can be concluded that there are 2 conditions:  

Ground state is the state of electrons filling shell with the lowest energy levels.  

Excited state is the state of electrons which occupies a higher energy level  

The state of excited electrons can be seen from the presence of electrons which do not fill the skin completely but fill the skin afterward  

2-7-1

From its 8 electron configuration, filling 3 shells, 2 electrons in the firs shell, 7 electrons in the second shell and 1 electron in the third shell

the electrons in the third shell should fill the electrons in the second shell first according to Aufbau rule (lower energy shells)

\tt  1s^22s^22p^4\rightarrow ground~state\\\\1s^22s^22p^33s^1\rightarrow excited~state
