Answer:

\boxed{\text{Q1. 3.6 g; Q2. 0.2 A}}

Explanation:

Q1. Mass of Cu

(a) Write the equation for the half-reaction.

Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⟶ Cu

The number of electrons transferred (z) is 2 mol per mole of Cu.

(b) Calculate the number of coulombs

q  = It  

\text{t} = \text{1.0 h} \times \dfrac{\text{3600 s}}{\text{1 h}} = \text{3600 s}\\\\q = \text{3 C/s} \times \text{ 3600 s} = \textbf{10 800 C}

(c) Mass of Cu

We can summarize Faraday's laws of electrolysis as

\begin{array}{rcl}m &=& \dfrac{qM}{zF}\\\\& = &\dfrac{10 800 \times 63.55}{2 \times 96 485}\\\\& = & \textbf{3.6 g}\\\end{array}\\\text{The mass of Cu produced is $\boxed{\textbf{3.6 g}}$}

Note: The answer can have only two significant figures because that is all you gave for the time.

Q2. Current used

(a) Write the equation for the half-reaction.

Ag⁺ + e⁻ ⟶ Ag

The number of electrons transferred (z) is 1 mol per mole of Ag.  

(a) Calculate q

\begin{array}{rcl}m &=& \dfrac{qM}{zF}\\\\2.00& = &\dfrac{q \times 107.87}{1 \times 96 485}\\\\q &=& \dfrac{2.00 \times 96485}{107.87}\\\\& = & \textbf{1789 C}\\\end{array}

(b) Calculate the current

t = 3 h = 3 × 3600 s = 10 800 s

\begin{array}{rcl}q&=& It\\1789 & = & I \times 10800\\I & = & \dfrac{1789}{10800}\\\\& = & \textbf{0.2 A}\\\end{array}\\\text{The current used was $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.2 A}}$}

Note: The answer can have only one significant figure because that is all you gave for the time.

Hydrogen cyanide, HCN, is prepared from ammonia, air, and natural gas (CH₄), by the following process:
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

6.75 g of HCN can be produced by the reaction

Explanation:

Complete reaction is:

2NH₃ (g) + 3O₂ (g) + 2CH₄ (g) → 2HCN (g) + 6H₂O (g)

Let's determine the moles of each reactant:

11.5 g . 1mol / 17g = 0.676 moles of ammonia

12 g . 1 mol / 32g = 0.375 moles of oxygen

10.5 g . 1mol/ 16 g =  0.656 moles of methane

Now is all about rules of three:

2 moles of ammonia reacts with 3 moles of O₂ and 2 moles of methane

0.676 moles of NH₃ may react with:

(0.676 . 3) /2 = 1.014 moles of O₂

(0.676 . 2) / 2 = 0.676 moles of methane

Both can be the limiting reactant.

3 moles of O₂ react with 2 moles of NH₃ and 2 moles of methane

0.375 moles of O₂ will react with:

(0.375 .2) / 3  = 0.375 moles

The same amount for methane, 0.375 moles

2 moles of CH₄ reacts with 3 moles of O₂ and 2 moles of NH₃

0.656 moles of methane would react with 0.656 moles of NH₃

(0.656 . 3 ) /2 = 0.437 moles of O₂   I do not have enough O₂

Oxygen is the limiting reactant → We can work with the reaction now.

Ratio is 3:2. 3 moles of oxygen produce 2 moles of cyanide

0.375 moles of O₂ may produce (0.375 .2 ) / 3 = 0.250 moles

If we convert the moles to mass → 0.250 mol . 27 g / 1mol = 6.75 g

The prefix ‘kilo-‘ means a thousand.
Blababa [14]

Answer:

0.97 kg, 1.0kg

Explanation:

As you have mentioned in the question, to convert kilo-gram to grams, this conversion is used, 1 kilogram = 1,000 grams

Initially, when one has to convert from one unit to another, there is a lot of confusion. To avoid any such, multiply and divide the number with units to which it has to be converted.

Here,

970 g = 970 g \times\frac{1 kg}{1 kg}

This makes no difference to the number.

970 g =  970 g \times\frac{1 kg}{1000 g}

As, 1 kg= 1,000 g

970 g =  \frac{970}{1000} kg

970 g = 0.97 kg

Rounding this off to the nearest tenth of a kilogram.

The tenths place is immediately to the right of the decimal point.

Here, 9 is at the tenth's place. Round the tenth's place up if the digit at hundredth's place is greater than or equal to 5. Since, 7 > 5, up the number at tenth's place.

So, answer is 1.0 kg
