Answer:
Diamonds have a broader potential window of 3 to 5 volts.
Explanation:
The minimum voltage required for electrolysis is called potential window. Electrodes such as titanium electrodes and those made of noble metals have a potential window of about 2 volts. Diamond has a potential window of 3 to 5 volts that makes it preferentially start a redox reaction of a substance that is difficult to electrolyze. This facilitates electrolysis of substance that were difficult to decompose in normal electrochemical systems.

Answer:
Mass = 88.12 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of iron oxide = 126 g
Mass of iron formed = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
Fe₂O₃ + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO₂
Number of moles of iron oxide:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 126 g/ 159.69 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.789 mol
Now we will compare the moles of iron with iron oxide.
Fe₂O₃ : Fe
1 : 2
0.789 : 2/1×0.789 = 1.578 mol
Mass of iron:
Mass = number of moles ×molar mass
Mass = 1.578 mol × 55.84 g/mol
Mass = 88.12 g
Nothing happens to these particles when it comes to size however if it were to be speed, the sample would increase.
Fact: The size of a particle will never change!
