In a certain electrolysis experiment, 1.24 g of Ag were deposited in one cell (containing an aqueous AgNO3 solution), while 0.65

0 g of an unknown metal X was deposited in another cell (containing an aqueous XCl3 solution) in series with the AgNO3 cell. Calculate the molar mass of X.

Answer:

The correct answer is 169.56 g/mol.

Explanation:

Based on the given information, the mass of Ag deposited is 1.24 g, and the mass of unknown metal X deposited in another cell is 0.650 g. The number of moles of electrons can be determined as,

= 1.24 g Ag * 1mol Ag/107.87 g/mol Ag * 1 mol electron/1 mol Ag ( the molecular mass of Ag is 107.87 g/mol)

= 0.0115 mole of electron

The half cell reaction for the metal X is,  

X^3+ (aq) + 3e- = X (s)

From the reaction, it came out that 3 faraday will reduce one mole of X^3+.  

The molar mass of X will be,  

= 0.650 g/0.0115 *3 mol electron/1 mol

= 56.52 * 3

= 169.56 g/mol

How does deforestation affect the carbon cycle
Mama L [17]
Deforestation is the mass cutting of trees.  Much of our oxygen comes from trees so if we cut down the trees then their will be more carbon dioxide in the air instead of the needed amount of oxygen.

Which of the following solutions would have the most basic pH? Assume that they are all 0.10 M in acid at 25C. The acid is follo
pychu [463]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Ka of HClO2 = 1.1 × 10-2

Ka of HCHO2 = 1.8 × 10-4

Ka of HCN = 4.9 × 10-10

Ka of HNO2 = 4.6 × 10-4

Ka of HF = 3.5 × 10-4

All at a concentration of 0.1 M

A.

HA --> H+ + A-

Ka = [H+] × [A-]/[HA]

[H+] = [A-] = x

[HClO2] = 0.1 M

HClO2 --> ClO2^- + H+

1.1 × 10-2 = x^2/0.1

x = sqrt(1.1 × 10^-3

= 0.033 M

pH = -log[H+]

= 1.48

B.

HA --> H+ + A-

Ka = [H+] × [A-]/[HA]

[H+] = [A-] = x

[HCHO2] = 0.1 M

HCHO2 --> CHO2^- + H+

1.8 × 10-4 = x^2/0.1

x = sqrt(1.8 × 10^-5)

= 0.0042 M

pH = -log[H+]

= 2.37

C.

HA --> H+ + A-

Ka = [H+] × [A-]/[HA]

[H+] = [A-] = x

[HCN] = 0.1 M

HCN --> CN- + H+

4.9 × 10-10 = x^2/0.1

x = sqrt(4.9 × 10-11)

= 0.000007 M

pH = -log[H+]

= 5.16

D.

HA --> H+ + A-

Ka = [H+] × [A-]/[HA]

[H+] = [A-] = x

[HNO2] = 0.1 M

HNO2 --> NO2^- + H+

4.6 × 10-4 = x^2/0.1

x = sqrt(4.6 × 10-5)

= 0.0068 M

pH = -log[H+]

= 2.17

E.

HA --> H+ + A-

Ka = [H+] × [A-]/[HA]

[H+] = [A-] = x

[HF] = 0.1 M

HF --> F- + H+

3.5 × 10-4 = x^2/0.1

x = sqrt(3.5 × 10-5)

= 0.0059 M

pH = -log[H+]

= 2.23

a) pH = 1.48

b) pH = 2.37

c) pH = 5.16

d) pH = 2.17

e) pH = 2.33

HCN is most basic because;

smallest Ka

Highest pH value = 5.16

"Crude oil dustillation"
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Crude oil is separated by fractional distillation. Crude oil is heated to vaporize the different hydrocarbons in a tank which is cool at the top and hot at the bottom. The vapours then rise and the different hydrocarbons condense at their specific boiling points, allowing them to be separated.

Lighter products, such as butane and other liquid petroleum gases (LPG), gasoline blending components, and naphtha, are recovered at the lowest temperatures. Mid-range products include jet fuel, kerosene, and distillates (such as home heating oil and diesel fuel).
