Zinc is to be electroplated onto both sides of an iron sheet that is 20 cm2 as a galvanized sacrificial anode. It is desired to

electroplate the zinc to a thickness of 0.025 mm. It is found that a current of 20 A produces a zinc coating of sufficient quality for galvanized iron. Determine the time required to produce the desired coating, assuming 100 % efficiency.

Answer:

The time required for the coating is 105 s

Explanation:

Zinc undergoes reduction reaction and absorbs two (2) electron ions.

The expression for the mass change at electrode (m_{ch}) is given as :

\frac{m_{ch}}{M} ZF = It

where;

M = molar mass

Z = ions charge at electrodes

F = Faraday's constant

I = current

A = area

t = time

also; (m_{ch}) = (Ad) \rho ; replacing that into above equation; we have:

\frac{(Ad) \rho}{M} ZF = It  ---- equation (1)

where;

A = area

d = thickness

\rho = density

From the above equation (1); The time required for coating can be calculated as;

[ \frac{20 cm^2 *0.0025 cm*7.13g/cm^3}{65.38g/mol}*2 \frac{moles\ of \ electrons}{mole \ of \ Zn} * 9.65*10^4 \frac{C}{mole \ of \ electrons }  ] = (20 A) t

t = \frac{2100}{20}

= 105 s

slavikrds [6]
The answer is (2). The Lithium has 3 protons and 4 neutrons. For every neutral atom, it will have the same number of protons and electrons. Because the proton has one positive charge and electron has one negative charge and neutron does not have charge.

To save time you can approximate the initial volume of water to ±1 mL and the initial mass of the solid to ±1 g. For example, if
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

20.2 g silver placed in 21.6 mL of water and 20.2 g copper placed in 21.6 mL of water

Explanation:

Since the density formula is mass divided volume, you can calculate the density of each of the components of the group and see which of all the groups are equal

In the group

density Ag=20.2 g silver/21.6ml H2O=0.9352g/ml

density Cu=20.2 g copper/21.6ml H2O=0.9352 g/ml

What is the difference between calorie and Calorie?
Blababa [14]

What is the difference between calories and kilocalories? The "calorie" we refer to in food is actually kilocalorie. One (1) kilocalorie is the same as one (1) Calorie (upper case C). A kilocalorie is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of water one degree Celsius.

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

  • mixture
  • homogenous mixture  (of hydrocarbons)
  • compound

Explanation:

Mixture can be easily separated by physical methods. Homogeneity and heterogeneity of a mixture is determined by whether the components there in are in a single phase and evenly distributed or not.

A solution has a solute evenly dissolved in  solvent to form a liquid substance.

An element is the basic form of  substance which cannot be broke down into any other simpler unit.  

I hope this was helpful.

Calculate the mass percent of Cl in Freon -112 (C2 Cl4 F2), a CFC refrigerant
Karolina [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:  69.6 %

Explanation:

Freon -112 (C₂Cl₄F₂)

MW = (12 x 2) + (35.5 x 4) + (19 x 2)

      = 24 + 142 + 38

      = 204 g

                       204 g of C₂Cl₄F₂  -----------------  100%

                       142 g                     -----------------   x

                      x = (142 x 100 ) / 204

                      x = 69.6 %
