Answer:

Wetlands are important features in the landscape that provide numerous beneficial services for people and for fish and wildlife. Some of these services, or functions, include protecting and improving water quality, providing fish and wildlife habitats, storing floodwaters and maintaining surface water flow during dry periods. These valuable functions are the result of the unique natural characteristics of wetlands.

A slice of cheese has a mass of 21 g and a volume of 15 cm3. What is the density of the cheese in units of g/cm3 and g/mL?

photoshop1234 [79]

Explanation:

First, you have to know the definition of density. Density is mass per unit volume, or D = m/V. In this problem, you are given the mass = 37 g and you are given the volume of 21 cm3. So, the density is simply m/V = 37g/21cm3 = 1.76g/cm3. It's that simple.

Consider the electrolysis of molten barium chloride, BaCl2. (a) Write the half-reactions. (b) How many grams of barium metal can

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer: a) Cathode(-): $Ba^+^2+2e^-\rightarrow Ba$

Anode(+): $2Cl^-\rightarrow Cl_2+2e^-$

b) 0.640 grams of Ba will be deposited.

Explanation: a) The problem is based on Faraday law of electrolysis. Molten barium chloride has $Ba^+^2$ ion and $Cl^-$ ion. Barium ion is reduced and chloride is oxidized. Reduction takes place at cathode and oxidation at anode. So, the half reactions will be:

Cathode(-): $Ba^+^2+2e^-\rightarrow Ba$

Anode(+): $2Cl^-\rightarrow Cl_2+2e^-$

b) The question asks, how many grams of barium metal can be produced by supplying 0.50 ampere for 30 minutes.

From the Cathode half-reaction, 1 mole of Ba is deposited by 2 moles of electrons and we know that 1 mole of electron carries one Faraday that is 96485 Coulomb.

Coulombs for 2 moles of electrons will be = 2*96485 C = 192970 C

So, we can say that, 192970 C will deposit 1 mole of Ba metal.

Total available coulombs can be calculated using the formula:

q=i*t

where, q is electric charge in coulomb, i is current in ampere and t is time in seconds.

$q=q=0.50A*30min(\frac{60sec}{1min})$
