What are some examples of how electrolysis is used in scientific research ?

Chemistry
1 answer:
charle [14.2K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation: Perhaps the most familiar example of electrolysis is the decomposition (breakdown) of water into hydrogen and oxygen by means of an electric current. The same process can be used to decompose compounds other than water. Sodium, chlorine, magnesium, and aluminum are four elements produced commercially by electrolysis.

Inessa [10]

Answer: decrease the temperature of the reaction

Explanation:

CH3COOH + CH3CH2OH ⇌ CH3COOCH2CH3 + H2O

The formation of an ester is an exothermic reaction. Therefore, a decrease in the temperature of the reaction will favour the production of ester.

How many electrons are there in second principal energy<br> level(n=2) of a phosphorus atom?
salantis [7]

Answer:

8 electrons

Explanation:

Phosphorous is the element of group 15 and third period. The atomic number of chlorine is 15 and the symbol of the element is P.

The electronic configuration of the element phosphorus is:-

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^3

Thus, from the electronic configuration shown above,

In n = 2, the total number of electrons are 8 which are present in 2s^22p^6

How do you know whether to use a lone pair or a double bond when drawing a Lewis dot structure?
Charra [1.4K]
Well that depends on the central atom. Remember each bond indicates another electron that is being shared with the central atom.
So CO4, carbon would be your central atom, with the 4 oxygen around it. There would be no double bonds because carbon only requires the 4 electrons provided by the oxygens, because of its location on the periodic table.
Nitrogen on the other hand is different. It's found in group 5 (5V) and has 5 valence electrons on its outer shell. So NO4 would have a central Nitrogen atom, with 3 oxygens providing a single bond, and one oxygen providing a double bond, because Nitrogen needs 5 electrons!
We learned it like this, the atom brought x amount of electrons to the party, x representing the valence electrons, and must leave with x electrons. It's silly but it works!
I hope I was able to help and clarify a few things up!
