In a dry cell, MnO2 occurs in a semisolid electrolyte paste and is reduced at the cathode. The MnO2 used in dry cells can itself be produced by an electrochemical process of which one half-reaction is shown below. Mn(aq) + 2 H20(/) → MnO2(s) + 4 H*(aq) + 2 e 2+ If a current of 27.5 A is used, how many hours are needed to produce 2.70 kg of MnO2? 4.0 At which electrode is the MnO2 formed?
