1. How many grams of chromium metal are plated out when a constant current of 8.00 A is passed through an aqueous solution conta

6 0

ion with charge 3⁺, like Cr³⁺ needs 3 Faradays to plate 1 mole 

Amount of electric charge per mole (faraday's constant) = 96500 C mol¹⁻

Time = 40min = 2400 sec<span>

you have coulombs = amps x sec = 8 x 2400 coulombs </span>

molar mass of Cr = 51.9961g<span>

96500 x 3 coulombs plates 51.9961g Cr 
so 8 x 2400 coulombs gives,</span>

<span>51.9961/(96500 x 3) x 8 x 2400 g Cr = 3.45g Cr </span>

<span>so, 3.45g chromium metal is plated out.</span>

What do electric forces do​
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

An electric force is exerted between any two charged objects. Objects with the same charge, both positive and both negative, will repel each other, and objects with opposite charges, one positive and one negative, will attract each other.

How can exposoure to high energy waves be both harmful and helpful to cells??
belka [17]
Exposure to high energy waves can be helpful to cells by damaging DNA in cells, meaning if somebody were to have cancer cells it breaks down the bad cells and it can shrink tumor. It can be harmful by damaging skin cells, which we need as our first line of defense. Meaning, it could cause skin cancer. Hope this helped!

Complete combustion of 7.40 g of a hydrocarbon produced 22.4 g of CO2 and 11.5 g of H2O. What is the empirical formula for the h
cluponka [151]
<span>C2H5 First, you need to figure out the relative ratios of moles of carbon and hydrogen. You do this by first looking up the atomic weight of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Then you use those atomic weights to calculate the molar masses of H2O and CO2. Carbon = 12.0107 Hydrogen = 1.00794 Oxygen = 15.999 Molar mass of H2O = 2 * 1.00794 + 15.999 = 18.01488 Molar mass of CO2 = 12.0107 + 2 * 15.999 = 44.0087 Now using the calculated molar masses, determine how many moles of each product was generated. You do this by dividing the given mass by the molar mass. moles H2O = 11.5 g / 18.01488 g/mole = 0.638361 moles moles CO2 = 22.4 g / 44.0087 g/mole = 0.50899 moles The number of moles of carbon is the same as the number of moles of CO2 since there's just 1 carbon atom per CO2 molecule. Since there's 2 hydrogen atoms per molecule of H2O, you need to multiply the number of moles of H2O by 2 to get the number of moles of hydrogen. moles C = 0.50899 moles H = 0.638361 * 2 = 1.276722 We can double check our math by multiplying the calculated number of moles of carbon and hydrogen by their respective atomic weights and see if we get the original mass of the hydrocarbon. total mass = 0.50899 * 12.0107 + 1.276722 * 1.00794 = 7.400185 7.400185 is more than close enough to 7.40 given rounding errors, so the double check worked. Now to find the empirical formula we need to find a ratio of small integers that comes close to the ratio of moles of carbon and hydrogen. 0.50899 / 1.276722 = 0.398669 0.398669 is extremely close to 4/10, so let's reduce that ratio by dividing both top and bottom by 2 giving 2/5. Since the number of moles of carbon was on top, that ratio implies that the empirical formula for this unknown hydrocarbon is C2H5</span>
