We can solve this without a concrete formula through dimensional analysis. This works by manipulating the units such that you end up with the unit of the final answer. Manipulate them by cancelling units that appear both in the numerator and denominator side. As a result, we must be left with the units of g. The current in A or amperes is equivalent to amount of Coulombs per second. Since this involves Coulombs, we will use the Faraday's constant which is 96,500 C/mol electron. The reaction is:

Cr³⁺(aq) + 3e⁻ --> Cr(s)

This means that for every 3 moles of electron transferred, 1 mole of Chromium metal is plated. The molar mass of Cr: 52 g/mol. The solution is as follows:

Mass of Chromium metal = (8 C/s)(60 s/1 min)(160 min)(1 mol e⁻/96,500 C)(1 mol Cr/3 mol e)(52 g/mol)
<em>Mass of Chromium metal = 13.79 g</em>

Driving cars lowers the pH of the oceans by _______.
Anna [14]

Correct answer: a. releasing CO2 that dissolves and forms acid in the oceans

The fuels used in automobiles release gases like carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen and sulfur. Carbon dioxide when dissolved in water forms carbonic acid. So, when the usage of cars is high, these emissions of carbon-dioxide into the atmosphere increase and this leads to the lowering of pH of the oceans as the carbon dioxide present in higher amounts in to atmosphere diffuses into the oceanic waters and form carbonic acid which makes the ocean slightly acidic.

CO_{2}(g) + H_{2}O (l)  H_{2}CO_{3}(aq)

A liquid has a volume of 34.6 ml and a mass of 46.0 g. what is the density of the liquid?
Minchanka [31]

The density of a substance can simply be calculated by dividing the mass by the volume:

density = mass / volume

 

Therefore calculating for the density since mass and volume are given:

density = 46.0 g / 34.6 mL

density = 1.33 g / mL

A line in the Brackett series of hydrogen has a wavelength of 1945 nm. From what state did the electron originate?
fiasKO [112]
Rydberg Eqn is given as:
 1/λ = R [1/n1^2 - 1/n2^2] 
<span>Where λ is the wavelength of the light; 2626 nm = 2.626×10^-6 m </span>
<span>R is the Rydberg constant: R = 1.09737×10^7 m-1 </span>
<span>From Brackett series n1 = 4 </span>
<span>Hence 1/(2.626×10^-6 ) = 1.09737× 10^7 [1/4^2 – 1/n2^2] </span>
<span>Some rearranging and collecting up terms: </span>
<span>1 = (2.626×10^-6)×(1.09737× 10^7)[1/16 -1/n2^2] </span>
<span>1= 28.82[1/16 – 1/n2^2] </span>
<span>28.82/n^2 = 1.8011 – 1 = 0.8011 </span>
<span>n^2 = 28.82/0.8011 = 35.98 </span>
<span>n = √(35.98) = 6</span>
