Answer:

The electrode that removes ions from solution

Explanation:

Each electrochemical cell consists of an anode and a cathode. Oxidation occurs at the anode and reduction occurs at the cathode.

At the anode, ions move from the electrode into the solution while at the cathode ions move from the solution to the electrode.

At the cathode, metal ions accept electron(s) and become deposited on the electrode hence this electrode removes ions from solution. This is reduction.

The photodissociation of ozone by ultraviolet light in the upper atmosphere is a first-order reaction with a rate constant of 1.

atroni [7]

Answer:

[O₃]= 8.84x10⁻⁷M

Explanation:

The photodissociation of ozone by UV light is given by:

O₃ + hν → O₂ + O (1)

The first-order reaction of the equation (1) is:

$rate = k [O_{3}] = - k \frac{\Delta [O_{3}]}{\Delta t}$ (2)

where k: is the rate constant and Δ[O₃]/Δt: is the variation in the ozone concentration with time, and the negative sign is by the decrease in the reactant concentration

We can get the following expression of the first-order integrated law of the reaction (1), by resolving the equation (2):

$[O_{3}]_{t} = [O_{3}]_{0} \cdot e^{-kt}$ (3)

where [O₃](t): is the ozone concentration in the elapsed time and [O₃]₀: is the initial ozone concentration

We can calculate the initial ozone concentration using equation (3):

$[O_{3}]_{t} = 5.0 \cdot 10^{-3}M \cdot e^{-(1.0\cdot 10^{-5}s^{-1}) (\frac{10d \cdot 24h \cdot 3600 s}{1d \cdot 1h})} = 8.84 \cdot 10^{-7}M$

So, the ozone concentration after 10 days is 8.84x10⁻⁷M.

I hope it helps you!

What is the concentration of a solution containing 0.32 moles of NaCl in 3.4 liters?

dsp73

Get the molarity we need to divide the number of moles of NaCl by the volume of the solution. So, 0.32 moles NaCl divided by 3.4 L, and that gives 0.094 M NaCl.
