In the Hall-Heroult process, a large electric current is passed through a solution of aluminum oxide Al2O3 dissolved in molten c

ryolite Na3AlF6, resulting in the reduction of the Al2O3 to pure aluminum. Suppose a current of 100.A is passed through a Hall-Heroult cell for 41.0 seconds. Calculate the mass of pure aluminum produced. Round your answer to 3 significant digits. Also, be sure your answer contains a unit symbol.

Answer:

0.382g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the reduction half-reaction

Al³⁺(aq) + 3 e⁻ ⇒ Al(s)

Step 2: Calculate the mass of Al produced when a current of 100. A passes through the cell for 41.0 s

We will use the following relationships.

  • 1 A = 1 C/s
  • 1 mole of electrons has a charge of 96486 C (Faraday's constant)
  • 1 mole of Al is produced when 3 moles of electrons pass through the cell.
  • The molar mass of Al is 26.98 g/mol.

The mass of Al produced is:

41.0s \times \frac{100C}{s} \times \frac{1mole^{-} }{96486C} \times \frac{1molAl}{3mole^{-} } \times \frac{26.98gAl}{1molAl} = 0.382gAl

Draw the alkene formed when 1-heptyne is treated with hbr in the presence of peroxide.
Nimfa-mama [501]
<h2>Heptene formed is -</h2><h2>CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH=CHBr</h2>

Explanation:

The two possibilities when the peroxide is not present

  • CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}-C≡CH +HBr → CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CBr=CH_{2}

  • CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CBr=CH_2 + HBr →CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CBr_2-CH_3

In presence peroxide,

CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-C≡CH+ HBr →CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH=CHBr

  • When peroxides are present in the reaction mixture, hydrogen bromide adds to the triple bond of heptane with regioselectivity.
  • This reaction is opposite to that of Markovnikov's rule which says that when asymmetrical alkene reacts with a protic acid HX, then the hydrogen of an acid is attached to the carbon with more in number of hydrogen substituents, and the halide (X) group is attached to the carbon with more in number of substituents of alkyl.
  • One mole of HBr adds to one mole of 1-heptane.
  • The structure of heptene formed is -

CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH=CHBr

How could you determine if a car door is made of a material, such as plastic?
docker41 [41]

Answer:Most cars have the visible outer panel, and supporting structure, made from steel. Some use aluminium, at least one series-produced model had magnesium doors, and there are also doors where the visible parts are plastic or fiberglass, with some sort of metal inside for strength.
