Answer:

The electrons in H2O are not shared equally, making it a polar molecule. The molecules in flourine, F2, are shared equally, making it not a polar molecule.

Current passes through a solution of sodium chloride. In 1.00 second, 2.68×1016Na+ ions arrive at the negative electrode and 3.9

EleoNora [17]

Answer : The current passing between the electrodes is, $1.056\times 10^{-2}A$

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the charge of sodium ion.

$q=ne$

where,

q = charge of sodium ion

n = number of sodium ion = $2.68\times 10^{16}$

e = charge on electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}C$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$q=(2.68\times 10^{16})\times (1.6\times 10^{-19}C)=4.288\times 10^{-3}C$

Now we have to calculate the charge of chlorine ion.

$q'=ne$

where,

q' = charge of chlorine ion

n = number of chlorine ion = $3.92\times 10^{16}$

e = charge on electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}C$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$q'=(3.92\times 10^{16})\times (1.6\times 10^{-19}C)=6.272\times 10^{-3}C$

Now we have to calculate the current passing between the electrodes.

$I=\frac{q}{t}+\frac{q'}{t}$

$I=\frac{4.288\times 10^{-3}}{1.00}+\frac{6.272\times 10^{-3}}{1.00}$

$I=1.056\times 10^{-2}A$

Thus, the current passing between the electrodes is, $1.056\times 10^{-2}A$

What are the energy transformations in a fossil fuels power plant?

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

In a fossil fuel power plant the chemical energy stored in fossil fuels such as coal, fuel oil, natural gas or oil shale and oxygen of the air is converted successively into thermal energy, mechanical energy and, finally, electrical energy.

During oxidation what happen

Agata [3.3K]

Oxidation is when a substance gains oxygen molecules. For example when hydrogen reacts with oxygen it forms H₂O. The H₂ has been oxidised.
