- An aqueous solution of an unknown salt of gold is electrolyzed by a current of 2.75 amps for 3.39 hours. The electroplating is carried out with an efficiency of 93.0%, resulting in a deposit of 21.221 g of gold. a How many faradays are required to deposit the gold? b What is the charge on the gold ions (based on your calculations)?arrow_forwardAn aqueous solution of an unknown salt of vanadium is electrolyzed by a current of 2.50 amps for 1.90 hours.

The volume ratio of the two product gases depends on the concentration of the nitric acid according to the equilibrium 2H+(aq)+2NO3(aq)+NO(g)3NO2(g)+H2O(l) Consider the following standard reduction potentials at 25C: a. Calculate the equilibrium constant for the above reaction. b. What concentration of nitric acid will produce a NO and NO2 mixture with only 0.20% NO2 (by moles) at 25C and 1.00 atm? Assume that no other gases are present and that the change in acid concentration can be neglected.arrow_forward
- An electrolysis experiment is performed to determine the value of the Faraday constant (number of coulombs per mole of electrons). In this experiment, 28.8 g of gold is plated out from a AuCN solution by running an electrolytic cell for two hours with a current of 2.00 A. What is the experimental value obtained for the Faraday Constant?arrow_forwarda Calculate the equilibrium constant for the following reaction at 25C. Sn(s)+Pb2+(aq)Sn2+(aq)+Pb(s) The standard cell potential of the corresponding voltaic cell is 0.010 V. b If an excess of tin metal is added to 1.0 M Pb2+, what is the concentration of Pb2+ at equilibrium?arrow_forwardOrder the following oxidizing agents by increasing strength under standard-state conditions: Mg2+(aq), Hg2+(aq), Pb2+(aq).arrow_forward
- The mass of three different metal electrodes, each from a different galvanic cell, were determined before and after the current generated by the oxidation-reduction reaction in each cell was allowed to flow for a few minutes. The first metal electrode, given the label A, was found to have increased in mass; the second metal electrode, given the label B, did not change in mass; and the third metal electrode, given the label C, was found to have lost mass. Make an educated guess as to which electrodes were active and which were inert electrodes, and which were anode(s) and which were the cathode(s).arrow_forwardA 1.0-L sample of 1.0 M HCl solution has a 10.0 A current applied for 45 minutes. What is the pH of the solution after the electricity has been turned off?arrow_forwardThe black silver sulfide discoloration of silverware can be removed by heating the silver article in a sodium carbonate solution in an aluminum pan. The reaction is 3Ag2S(s)+2Al(s)6Ag(s)+3S2(aq)+2Al3+(aq) a. Using data in Appendix 4, calculate G, K, and for the above reaction at 25C. [For Al3+(aq), Gf = 480. kJ/mol.] b.
