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

How do particles of gas create pressure
Fantom [35]

Answer:

Gas pressure is caused when the gas particles hit the walls of their container. The more often the particles hit the walls, and the faster they are moving when they do this, the higher the pressure. This is why the pressure in a tyre or balloon goes up when more air is pumped in

LekaFEV [45]

The correct answer is D) Dan's sister was correct because Dan's legs touched the car seats. That is an indicator of heat transfer by conduction.

Conduction only happens when a heated object touches a non-heated (or not as heated) object. Radiation did cause the car to become hot, but conduction caused Dan to get burned.

Hope this helps!! :D
