1st hintHow many moles of electrons are needed to deposit 1 molof Al?

a hint!!!!

2nd hintThe charge on a mole of electrons is 96,500C?

The production of Aluminium during the electrolysisof aluminium oxide can be represented by

What is the quantity of electricity needed to produce 0.2 mol of Al?

Correct because……..

To produce 1 mole of aluminium, 3 moles of electrons are needed. i.e. 96,500 C x 3 = 289500 C needed.

Al 3+ + 3e Al

1 mole Al = 289500 C0.2 mole Al = 289500 x 0.2 = 57,900C

A solution of HCl is electrolysed. What current is neededto produce 4.8 l of H2 gas in 3 min 13 sec? 1 mole of gasoccupies 24 l .

a. 20 A

b. 50 A

c. 100 A

d. 200 A

1st hintHow many moles of hydrogen does 4.8 l represent?

a hint!!!!

2nd hintHow many moles of electrons do you need to deposit 1 molof hydrogen gas?

Q = I x t

A solution of HCl is electrolysed. What current is neededto produce 4.8 l of H2 gas in 3 min 13 sec? 1 mole of gasoccupies 24 l ?

Correct because……..

2H+ (aq) + 2e- H2 (g)

So to produce a mole of hydrogen gas, 2 mol of electrons are needed.4.8l = 4.8/24 mol = 0.2 mol of gas produced.1 mol of gas would need 96500 x 2 C0.2 mol would need (96500 x 2) x 0.2 C = 3860 CQuantity of charge = current x time

Q = I x t

So I = Q/t = 3860 / 193 = 20 A
