Purification of nickel can be achieved by electrorefining nickel from an impure nickel anode onto a pure nickel cathode in an el

ectrolytic cell. How many hours will it take to plate 18.0 kg of nickel onto the cathode if the current passed through the cell is held constant at 31.0 A ? Assume the nickel in the electrolytic solution is present as Ni2+ .

Answer: 530 hours

Explanation:

The reduction of Nickel ions to nickel is shown as:

Ni^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Ni

96500\times 2=193000Coloumb of electricity deposits 1 mole of Nickel

1 mole of Nickel weighs = 58.7 g

Given quantity = 18.0 kg = 18000 g  (1kg=1000g)

58.7 g of Nickel is deposited by 193000 C of electricity

18000 g of Nickel is deposited by = \frac{193000}{58.7}\times 18000=59182282.8C of electricity

Q=I\times t

where Q= quantity of electricity in coloumbs  = 59182282.8C

I = current in amperes = 31.0 A

t= time in seconds = ?

59182282.8C=31.0A\times t

t=1909105.9sec

(1h=3600 sec)

t=530hours

Thus 530 hours are required to plate 18.0 kg of nickel onto the cathode if the current passed through the cell is held constant at 31.0 A

A balloon is filled to a volume of 1.6 L at 278 K. The balloon is left outside overnight and the temperature has dropped to 253
german

Explanation:

Charles' law gives the relationship between the volume and the temperature of the gas. Mathematically,

Volume ∝ Temperature

i.e. \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=\dfrac{T_1}{T_2}

We have, V₁ = 1.6 L, T₁ = 278 K, T₂ = 253, V₂=?

V_2=\dfrac{V_1T_2}{T_1}\\\\V_2=\dfrac{1.6\times 253}{278}\\\\V_2=1.45\ L

So, the new volume is 1.45 L.

A correct statement of Henry's law is: a. The concentration of a gas in solution is inversely proportional to temperature. b. Th
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

e. None of these.

Explanation:

Hey there!

In this case, since the Henry's law is defined in terms of pressure, henry's constant and pressure, as shown below:

C=K_H*P

Whereas C is the concentration, KH the Henry's constant and P the pressure, we infer that the concentration of a gas solution is directly proportional to the pressure, which is not the group choices, therefore, the answer is e. None of these.

Best regards!

Mass defect is associated with: nuclear fusion nuclear fission radioactive decay mass lost by nuclear collisions
Kay [80]
I would say mass lost by nuclear collisions. The mass defect is the mass difference between the mass of an atomic nucleus and the sum of the mass of its constituent particles. It equals the energy given off in the formation of the nucleus.
