This
reaction is called the electrolysis of water. The balanced reaction is:
2H2O = 2H2 + O2
<span>
We are given the amount of water for the electrolysis reaction. This
will be the starting point of our calculation.
45.6 grams H2O (1 mol H2O / 18.02 g H2O) (1 mol O2 / 2 mol H2O) = 1.27 mol O2
V = nRT/P = </span><span>1.27 mol O2 (0.08206 atm L / mol K) (301 K) / 1.24 atm
V = 25.20 L O2</span>
A kilogram is a measure of mass; 1,000 grams
The heat transfer just occurred is mainly conduction.
Conduction happens when two objects are in contact with each other. In the hotter object, the molecules and/or free electrons have a higher kinetic energy, thus they'll travel and collide into other molecules, resulting in spreading the energy to the other object.
The heat transfer happens until thermal equilibrium, where both objects have the same temperature and their molecules have the same kinetic energy rate.
In addition, radiation is also happening since everything that has a higher temperature than the environment is a net emitter. They release electromagnetic waves that turn out to be radiation. These occur even without the presence of air.
