Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Four moles of electrons

Explanation:

The reactions in a breathalyzer are redox reactions. Fuel cell breathalyzers consists of fuel cells with platinum electrodes. The current produced depends on the amount of alcohol in the breath. Detection of alcohol involves the oxidation of ethanol to ethanoic acid. The two half cells set in the process are;

Anode;

C2H5OH(aq) + 4OH^-(aq) ----------> CH3COOOH(aq) + 3H2O(l) + 4e

Cathode;

O2(g) + 2H2O(l) +4e--------> 4OH^-(aq)

Hence four electrons are transferred in the process.
