Answer: chemical decomposition produced by passing an electric current through a liquid or solution containing ions. In chemistry and manufacturing, electrolysis is a technique that uses direct electric current to drive an otherwise non-spontaneous chemical reaction. Electrolysis is commercially important as a stage in the separation of elements from naturally occurring sources such as ores using an electrolytic cell. Electrolysis is used in industry for the production of many metals and non-metals (e.g., aluminium, magnesium, chlorine, and fluorine). Electrolysis is commonly employed for coating one metal with another. The method of coating one metal with another using an electric current is called electroplating.

Hope this helps....... Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!! :D

There are 130 m&m's in a bag. there are half as many green as red. the number of blue is equal to the number of red and gree

AleksandrR [38]

Let x = red
Let 0.5x = green
Let (x) + (0.5x) = 1.5x = blue
Let 0.5(1.5x) = 0.75x = yellow
Let 0.75x + 4 = brown

$(x) + (0.5x) + (1.5x) + (0.75x) + (0.75 + 4) = 130$
$x + 0.5x+ 1.5x + 0.75x + 0.75 + 4 = 130$
$4.5x + 4 = 130$
$4.5x = 126$
$x = 28$

Use this value to calculate the other required numbers.
red = 28
green = 0.5x = 0.5(28) = 14
blue = 1.5x = 1.5(28) = 42
yellow = 0.75x = 0.75(28) = 21
brown = 0.75x + 4 = 0.75(28) + 4 = 25

Solve for C.<br> -5/8c=20

iris [78.8K]

-5/8c = 20....multiply both sides by -8/5 (this cancels out the -5/8 on the left
c = 20(-8/5)
c = -160/5
c = - 32

check..
-5/8(-32) = 20
160/8 = 20
20 = 20 (correct)

so c = -32
