The atomic mass of Cu is 63.5. Find its electrochemical equivalent​

Chemistry
1 answer:
FrozenT [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The electrochemical equivalent of copper, Cu, is 3.29015544 × 10⁻⁷ g/C

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The element for which the electrochemical equivalent is sought = Copper

The atomic mass of copper = 63.5

The electrochemical equivalent, 'Z', of an element or a substance is the mass, 'm', of the element or substance deposited by one coulomb of electricity, which is equivalent to a 1 ampere current flowing for a period of 1 second

Mathematically, we have;

m = Z·I·t = Z·Q

We have;

Cu²⁺ (aq) + 2·e⁻ → Cu

Therefore, one mole of Cu, is deposited by 2 moles of electrons

The charge carried one mole of electrons = 1 Faraday = 96500 C

∴ The charge carried two moles of electrons, Q = 2 × 96500 C = 193,000 C

Given that the mass of an atom of Cu = 63.5 a.m.u., the mass of one mole of Cu, m = 63.5 g

Z = \dfrac{m}{Q} = \dfrac{63.5 \ g}{193,000 \ C} = 3.29015544 \times 10^{-4} \, g \cdot C^{-1}

∴ Z = 3.29015544 × 10⁻⁴ g/C = 3.29015544 × 10⁻⁷ g/C

The electrochemical equivalent of copper, Cu, is Z = 3.29015544 × 10⁻⁷ g/C

One of the emission spectral lines for Be3+ has a wavelength of 253.4 nm for an electronic transition that begins in the state w
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

Relationship between wavenumber and Rydberg constant (R) is as follows:

wave\ number=R\times Z^2\frac{1}{n_1^2} -\frac{1}{n_1^2}

Here, Z is atomic number.

R=109677 cm^-1

Wavenumber is related with wavelength as follows:

wavenumber = 1/wavelength

wavelength = 253.4 nm

wavenumber=\frac{1}{253.4\times 10^{-9}} \\=39463.3\ cm^{-1}

Z fro Be = 4

39463.3=109677\times 4^2(\frac{1}{n_1^2} -\frac{1}{5^2})\\39463.3=109677\times 16(\frac{1}{n_1^2} -\frac{1}{5^2})\\n_1=4

Therefore, the principal quantum number corresponding to the given emission is 4.

How many atoms are in 13.97 liters of water vapor at STP
Arisa [49]
<span>Let's </span>assume that water vapor has ideal gas behavior. <span>
Then we can use ideal gas formula,
PV = nRT<span>

</span><span>Where, P is the pressure of the gas (Pa), V is the volume of the gas (m³), n is the number of moles of gas (mol), R is the universal gas constant ( 8.314 J mol</span></span>⁻¹ K⁻¹) and T is temperature in Kelvin.<span>
<span>
</span>P = 1 atm = 101325 Pa (standard pressure)
V = 13.97 L = 13.97 x 10</span>⁻³ m³<span>
n = ?
R = 8.314 J mol</span>⁻¹ K⁻¹<span>
T = 0 °C = 273 K (standard temperature)
<span>
By substitution,
</span>101325 Pa x 13.97x 10</span>⁻³ m³ = n x 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ x 273 K<span>
                                          n = 0.624 mol
<span>
Hence, the moles of water vapor at STP is 0.624 mol.

According to the </span></span>Avogadro's constant, 1 mole of substance has 6.022 × 10²³ particles.
<span>
Hence, number of atoms in water vapor = 0.624 mol x </span>6.022 × 10²³ mol⁻¹
<span>                                                                = 3.758 x 10</span>²³<span>

The liquid dispensed from a burette is called ___________.
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

The liquid that is been dispensed during titration as regards this question is Titrant.

  • Titration can be regarded as  common laboratory method that is been carried out during quantitative chemical analysis.
  • This analysis helps to know the concentration of an identified analyte.
  • Burette can be regarded as laboratory apparatus.

It is used in the in measurements of variable amounts of liquid ,this apparatus helps in dispensation   of liquid, especially when performing titration.

  • The specifications is been done base on their volume, or resolution.
  • The liquid that comes out of this apparatus is regarded as Titrant, and this is gotten during titration process, which is usually carried out during volumetric analysis.

Therefore, burrete is used in volumetric analysis.
