0.042 moles of Hydrogen evolved

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

I = 1.5 A

t = 1.5 hr = 5400 s

Required

Number of Hydrogen evolved

Solution

Electrolysis of water ⇒ decomposition reaction of water into Oxygen and Hydrogen gas.

Cathode(reduction-negative pole) : 2H₂O(l)+2e⁻ ⇒ H₂(g)+2OH⁻(aq)

Anode(oxidation-positive pole) : 2H₂O(l)⇒O₂(g)+4H⁻(aq)+4e⁻

Total reaction : 2H₂O(l)⇒2H₂(g)+O₂(g)

So at the cathode H₂ gas is produced

Faraday : 1 mole of electrons (e⁻) contains a charge of 96,500 C

\tt mol~e^-=\dfrac{Q}{96500}

Q = i.t

Q = 1.5 x 5400

Q = 8100 C

mol e⁻ = 8100 : 96500 = 0.084

From equation at cathode , mol ratio e⁻ : H₂ = 2 : 1, so mol H₂ = 0.042

Show the calculation of the mass (grams) of a 14.5 liter gas sample with a molecular weight of 82 when collected at 29°C and 740
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

In this conditions, the gaswll weight 46.74 g.

Explanation:

The idal gas law states that:

PV = nRT,

P: pressure = 740 mmHg = 0.97 atm

V: volume = 14.5 L

n: number of moles

R: gas constant =0.08205 L.atm/mol.K

T: temperature = 29°C = 302.15K

n = \frac{PV}{RT} \\n = \frac{0.97x14.5}{0.082 x 302.15 } \\n = 0.57 mol

1 mol gas ___ 82 g

0.57 mol gas __ x

x = 46.74 g

The spherical object will float and the square object will sink to the bottom of the fluid as it has greater density. :)
