Calculate the electrical energy per gram of anode material for the following reaction at 298 K:

Chemistry

43.8 kJ

<h3>Explanation</h3>

There are two electrodes in a voltaic cell. Which one is the anode?

The lithium atom used to have no oxygen atoms when it was on the reactant side. It gains two oxygen atoms after the reaction. It has gained more oxygen atoms than the manganese atom. Gaining oxygen is oxidation. As a result, lithium is being oxidized.

Oxidation takes place at the anode of a cell. Therefore, the anode of this cell is made of lithium.

Lithium has an atomic mass of 6.94. Each gram of Li would contain 1/6.94 = 0.144 moles of Li atoms. Each Li atom loses one electron in this cell. Therefore, the number of electron transferred, <em>n</em>, equals 0.144 moles for each gram of the anode.

Let w_\text{max} represents the electrical energy produced.

w_\text{max} = n \cdot F \cdot E_\text{cell}, where

  • <em>n</em> is the <em>number of moles</em> electrons transferred,
  • <em>F</em> is the Faraday's constant,
  • <em>E</em>_\text{cell} is the cell potential,

<em>n </em>= 0.144 mol, as shown above, and

<em>F </em>= 96.486 kJ / (\text{V} \cdot \text{mol} \; \text{e}^{-}).

Therefore,

w_\text{max} = n \cdot F \cdot E\\\phantom{w_\text{max}} = 0.144 \times 96.486 \times 3.15 \\\phantom{w_\text{max}} = 43.8 \; \text{kJ}.

Determine the mass of 5.20 moles of C6H12 (gram-formula mass = 84.2 grams/mole).
muminat

Hello!

Determine the mass of 5.20 moles of C6H12 (gram-formula mass = 84.2 grams/mole).

We have the following data:

m (mass) = ? 

n (number of moles) = 5.20 moles

MM (Molar mass of C6H12) ≈ 84.2 g/mol

Now, let's find the mass, knowing that:

n = \dfrac{m}{MM}

5.20\:\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!\!\!mol = \dfrac{m}{84.2\:g/\diagup\!\!\!\!\!\!\!mol}

m = 5.20*84.2

\boxed{\boxed{m = 437.84\:g}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark

Scientists can tell recycling reduces atmospheric emissions by knowing which of the following? o it takes more Btu to manufactur
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

According to the Environmental Paper Network's Paper Calculator, it takes about 32 million BTUs of energy to produce 1 ton of virgin paper fiber. To produce 1 ton of recycled paper, it takes about 22 million BTUs.

so the answer could be it takes less Btu to manufacture recycled products than new ones

If the temperature is 80° outside does the air transfer more or less thermal energy to a thermometer then if it is 60°
kati45 [8]
Less, because thermal energy is heat so if it gets colder there is less thermal energy.
