Answer: Amount of Gallium = 0.127g
Explanation:
Electrolysis equation is:
Ga3+ + 3e- ------> Ga
To calculate the charge
t = 40.0 min = 40.0 x 60 s = 2400 s
time, t = 2400s
Q = I*t =
= 0.22A x 2400s
= 528 C
1 mol of Ga requires 3 mol of electron
1 mol of electron = 1 Faraday =96485 C
So,1 mol of Ga requires 96485x 3= 289455 C
mol of Gallium = 528/289455 = 0.00182 mol
Molar mass of Ga = 69.72 g/mol
mass of Ga = number of moles x molar mass
= 0.00182mol * 69.72
g/mol
= 0.127g
or you can use this direct formula
m=(current*time/Faraday's)*(molar mass/no of electrons transferred)
keeping in mind Ga3+ + 3e- → Ga
n=3
m=(It/F)*(mew/n)
m =(0.22 x 2400/96485) x (69.72/3)
m=0.127 g
Electrons are added to the same principal energy level.
The answer to fill in the blank would be B) because say for ex you are sick and your mom checks your temperature, she is doing this to see how hot/cold are you, so she is checking your body to see how you are, so same with this, temperature basically measures the kinetic energy/motion of particles in something.
The type of a bond in which two atoms share their electrons is called the covalent bond. A famous example of this is the bond between two hydrogen atoms.
