Electrolysis is used in the electroplating of metals. The same amount of current is passed through separate aqueous solutions of

CuSO4, Sn(SO4)2 and Cr2(SO4)3 in separate electrolytic cells for the same amount of time. State and explain which cell would deposit the greatest amount (in mol) of metal. Identify the electrode at which the metal is deposited.

Answer:

CuSO4 cell will have the greatest amount of deposit among all three. The deposit will occur at the cathode

Explanation:

The valence of the elements in this case is as follows -

Cu - 2e-

Sn - 4e-

Cr - 3e-

CuSO4 cell will have the greatest amount of deposit among all three

The atoms of copper metal will deposit at the cathode. At the cathode, the least number of moles of electrons needed .

Hence, more amount of copper  can be extracted out by the electrolyte

By what factor does [h+ ] change for each ph change? (a) 3.20 units
konstantin123 [22]
When a change in PH = 10^-ΔPH
so the change = 10^-3.2
change depends on two factor 0.00063 (10^-3.2)and factor 1585 (10^3.2)depending on the way which the change goes.if PH change from PH=0 to PH= 3.2 so the change is decreasing from concentration from 1 mol to 0.00063 and if PH change from PH = 3.2 to PH=0 so the change is increasing by a factor of 1585.

How much energy (joules) is needed to heat 250 grams of copper from 22 °C to 99 °C? The specific heat capacity (C) of copper is
Naddik [55]

Answer:

7430.5 Joules (7.4*10^4 Joules)

Explanation:

Q=mc∆T

where Q is energy in Joules.

Now m=250 g

c= 0.386 J/g°C

∆T = 99 - 22 = 77 °C

plugging the values in gives

Q=250*0.386*77=7430.5 Joules

(7.4*10^4 Joules, if 2 significant figures)

Choose all of the answers that are correct when describing this atom.
gregori [183]
I believe that this atom is  chlorine and the atom has an overall charge of zero.
Chlorine is chemical element which is atomic number 17 in the periodic table. Each chlorine atom has 17 protons (positively charged) in the nucleus balanced by 17 electrons (negatively charged) in the energy shells ( thus an overall charge of zero)

After substantial heating, 6.25 g of iron produced 18.00 g of a compound with chlorine. The empirical formula is:
babunello [35]

Answer:

Option A. FeCl3

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass of iron (Fe) = 6.25g

Mass of the compound formed = 18g

From the question, we were told that the compound formed contains chlorine. Therefore the mass of chlorine is obtained as follow

Mass of chlorine (Cl) = Mass of compound formed – Mass of iron.

Mass of chlorine (Cl) = 18 – 6.25

Mass of chlorine (Cl) = 11.75g

The compound therefore contains:

Iron (Fe) = 6.25g

Chlorine (Cl) = 11.75g

The empirical formula for the compound can be obtained by doing the following:

Step 1:

Divide by their molar mass

Fe = 6.25/56 = 0.112

Cl = 11.75/35.5 = 0.331

Step 2:

Divide by the smallest

Fe = 0.112/0.112 = 1

Cl = 0.331/0.112 = 3

The empirical formula for the compound is FeCl3
