Answer:

C. An external voltage source

Explanation:

An electrolytic cell converts electrical energy from an external voltage source into chemical energy that drives a reaction.

The external voltage source is usually a battery. This energy form generated from the battery helps to drive chemical reactions.

The process involves the decomposition of an ionic compound by means of current passed into the aqueous or molten form of the compound through conductors known as electrodes.

The combustion of 3.795 mg of liquid B, which contains only C, H, and O, with excess oxygen gave 9.708 mg of CO2 and 3.969 mg of

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Explanation:

9.708 mg of CO₂ will contain 12 x 9.708 / 44 = 2.64 g of C .

3.969 mg of H₂O will contain 2 x 3.969 / 18 = .441 g of H .

mg of O in given liquid B = 3.795 - ( 2.64 + .441 ) = .714 mg

ratio of mg of C , H , O in the compound = 2.64 : .441 : .714

ratio of no of atoms of C , H , O in the compound

= 2.64 / 12 : .441 /1 : .714 / 16

= .22 : .44 : .0446

= .22 / .22 : .44 / .22 : .044 / .22

= 1 : 2 : .2

1 x 5 : 2 x 5 : .2 x 5

= 5 : 10 : 1

empirical formula of the compound = C₅H₁₀O

Volume of 89.8 mL at 1 .00 atm at 200⁰C

volume of gas at 1 atm and 0⁰C = 89.8 x 273 / 473 mL

= 51.83 mL

51.83 mL weighs .205 g

22400 mL will weigh .205 x 22400 / 51.83 g

= 88.6 g

So molecular weight = 88.6

Let molecular formula be (C₅H₁₀O)ₙ

molecular weight = n ( 5 x 12 + 10 + 16 )

= 86 n

86 n = 88.6

n = 1 approx

So molecular formula is same as empirical formula

C₅H₁₀O is molecular formula .

A water sample has a pH of 8.2 and a bicarbonate concentration of 97 mg/L. What is the alkalinity of the sample in moles/L and i

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:6.94

Explanation:

Molar mass of CaCO3=40+12+16×3

=40+12+48=100g/mol

Moles=mass of substance/molar mass

=97mg/100g=0.097/100=0.00097moles/L.

PH=-log[CaCo3]=-log(0.00097)=6.94

P.s it's log to base e

Consider the molecules: scl2, f2, cs2, cf4, and brcl. select the choice where the bonds of the molecules are arranged in order o

elena-s [515]

The polarity of a bond depends on the difference in electronegativities of the atoms involved in bonding. Greater this difference, greater is the polarity

1) In SCl2 we have the S-Cl bond

Electronegativity values: S = 2.5, Cl = 3

Difference = 3.0 -2.5 = 0.5

2) In F2 we have the F-F bond

Electronegativity value: F = 4.0

Difference = 4.0-4.0 = 0

3) In CS2 we have the C-S bond

Electronegativity value: C = 2.5, S = 2.5

Difference = 2.5 -2.5 = 0

4) In CF4 we have the C-F bond

Electronegativity values: C = 2.5, F = 4.0

Difference = 4.0 -2.5 = 1.5

5) In BrCl we have the Br-Cl bond

Electronegativity values: Br = 2.8, Cl = 3

Difference = 3.0 -2.8 = 0.2

Therefore, the increasing order of polarity is

F2 = CS2 < BrCl < SCl2 < CF4
