How long will a current of 0.995 A need to be passed through water (containing H2SO4) for 5.00 L of O2 to be produced at STP
1 answer:
Answer:
24 hours
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
The needed mole of is
= 5 ÷22.4 = n
Also 1 mole of required four electric charge
Now the charge needed is
= n × 4 × 96,500 C
= 4 × 96,500 × 5 c ÷ 22.4
= 86160.714 C
Now
q = i t
t = q ÷ i
= 86160.714 C ÷ 0.995
= 86593.7 seconds
= 24 hours
Hence, the correct option is A.

Answer:
Explanation:
Electron gain enthalpy is defined as energy released on addition of electron to an isolated gaseous atom.
The amount of energy released will be maximum when the tendency to attract electrons is maximum. As flourine has atomic number of 9 and has electronic configuration of 2,7. It can readily gain 1 electron to attain stable noble gas configuration and hence liberates maximum energy.
