Carbon dioxide is formed when oxygen reacts with carbon in positive electrode which eventually burns out. This is why the carbon anode burn away in the electrolysis of aluminium chloride.

Percent Composition and Determining Empirical And Molecular Formulas

raketka [301]

Answer:

% comp. H = 2.8%, % comp. Cl = 97.2%

Explanation:

HCl mass = mass of H + mass of Cl

HCL mass = 1.00794 + 35.453 = 36.46094

% comp. of H = 1.007694 / 36.46094 x 100 = around 2.8% (2.76376308455)

% comp. of Cl = 35.453 / 36.46094 x 100 = around 97.2% (97.2355622208)

Examine the equation.

Alisiya [41]

Explanation:

The reaction expression is given as;

2H₂ $_{g}$ + O₂ $_{g}$ → 2H₂O $_{l}$

From the balance reaction expression:

2 mole of hydrogen gas combines with 1 mole of oxygen gas on the reactant side;

This produces 2 mole of water on the product side of the expression.

The product is in liquid form.

This reaction is a synthesis reaction because a single product is formed from two reactants.
