Explanation:
In a galvanic cell, the cathode is positively charged and the anode is negatively charged.
The cathode attracts electron while the anode donates or releases electrons.
Electrons received - Cathode
Electrons donated - Anode
The answer to this question is A- evaporation
Answer:
3.0 moles Al₂O₃
Explanation:
We do not know which of the reactants is the limiting reactant. Therefore, you need to convert both of the given mole values into the product. This can be done using the mole-to-mole ratio made up of the balanced equation coefficients.
4 Al + 3 O₂ -----> 2 Al₂O₃
6.0 moles Al 2 moles Al₂O₃
---------------------- x ------------------------- = 3.0 moles Al₂O₃
4 moles Al
4.0 moles O₂ 2 moles Al₂O₃
---------------------- x ------------------------- = 2.7 moles Al₂O₃
3 moles O₂
As you can see, O₂ produces the smaller amount of product. This means O₂ is the limiting reactant. Remember, the limiting reactant is the reactant which runs out before the other reactant(s) are completely reacted. As such, the actual amount of Al₂O₃ produced is 2.7 moles.
However, since this problem is directly addressing how much Al₂O₃ is produced from Al, the answer you most likely are looking for is 3.0 moles Al₂O₃.
Answer:
A. It is possible not all of the water was evaporated from the sand, causing the recovered mass to be higher
D. While drying the NaCl, the liquid boiled and some splattered out of the evaporating dish, causing the recovered mass to be higher.
Explanation:
Sand absorbs water and stores it. The sunlight causes the water to evaporate but sand can hold some of the water inside it. This results in increase in mass of the sand. The mass of sand before and after the water evaporation can be different.
