In the Hall-Heroult process, a large electric current is passed through a solution of aluminum oxide (A12O 3) dissolved in molte

n cryolite (Na3AIF6) ,resulting in the reduction of the AI�3 to pure aluminum. Suppose a current of 6800.A is passed through a Hall-Heroult cell for 54.0 seconds. Calculate the mass of pure aluminum produced. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol and the correct number of significant digits.

Answer:

34.2 g

Explanation:

In the Hall-Heroult process, Al³⁺ (from Al₂O₃) is reduced to Al. The reduction half-reaction is:

Al³⁺ + 3 e⁻ ⇒ Al

We can establish the following relations:

  • 1 A = 1 c/s
  • 1 mole of e⁻ has a charge of 96468 c (Faraday's constant)
  • 1 mol of Al is produced when 3 moles of e⁻ circulate
  • The molar mass of Al is 26.98 g/mol.

Suppose a current of 6800 A is passed through a Hall-Heroult cell for 54.0 seconds. The mass of Al produced is:

54.0s.\frac{6800c}{s} .\frac{1mole^{-} }{96468c} .\frac{1molAl}{3mole^{.} } .\frac{26.98gAl}{1molAl} =34.2gAl

KatRina [158]

Answer:

D. VISCOSITY can be defined as a substance's ability to resist flow.

Explanation:

This is the statement that correctly describe the term viscosity. Viscosity explains why substances or fluids resist flow. It shows that internal friction or resistance to flow revealed by a substance. A substance with high viscosity or internal friction resist flow and one with low viscosity flow easily. Viscosity of a substance change base on various factors affecting the substance such as pressure, temperature, surface area. Substances like water has low viscosity explaining why it flows easily.

Answer:

A termolecular reaction requires the collision of three particles at the same place and time.

Explanation:

This type of reaction is very uncommon because all three reactants must simultaneously collide with each other, with sufficient energy and correct orientation, to produce a reaction.
