Electrolysis is a type of redox reaction. The electroloysis of sea water is one potential process for production hydrogen gas used as a fuel. During the electrolysis of sea water, a secondary side reaction is possible due to sufficient salt concentrations. In this reaction, aqueous sodium chloride undergoes a redox reaction to produce sodium and chlorine gas. wwww a. Write the balanced molecular equation showing the electrolysis of sodium choloride. Use phase labels b. Write the oxidation half reaction c. Write the reduction half reaction d. How many electrons are transferred in this reaction?

You and your team work at a scientific research facility that is working towards creating the newest and best batteries for cell phones. Last week, you were told you have a new boss. Your new boss has a science background but he hears that beryllium (Be) is much cheaper than lithium. Your team does not think that switching to beryllium in batteries is a good idea. You have a meeting coming up with him. You plan to convince him that lithium is a better choice than beryllium for creating lightweight, and energy efficient batteries. Use your knowledge of periodic trends to create a slide with your team to present to him! Use the following concepts and terms in your argument: ionization energy, Does Li or Be have a greater ionization energy? Why does this matter? atomic mass Does Li or Be have a greater atomic mass? Why does this matter? Conclusion :

Cu + NO3- -------> Cu2+ + NO2 Cu(NO3)2 + 4 H+--------> Cu + 2 NO2 + 2 H2O 2 Cu2+ + 4 H2O + 2 NO2 --------> Cu + 2 NO3- + 8 H+ 10 HCl + 5 Cu + 2 NaNO3 --------> 5 CuCl2 + 2 NaNO2 + 2 H2O Cu + 4 H+ + 2 NO3- --------> Cu2+ + 2 NO2 + 2 H2O
During an electrolysis experiment, the following species are present in solution: H+, CH3COOH, CH3COO-, Na+, SO42-, H2O. The lead electrode dipped in the solution serves as the anode. Why can't the polyatomic anion SO42- be oxidized in this experiment? because sulfur in this anion has its highest possible oxidation number of +6 because sulfur in this anion cannot give up any more electrons because SO42- cannot act as a reducing agent all statements above are correct
