calculate the amount of curiosity and br2 produced in 1.5 hrs at inert electrodes in a solution
Answers
Explanation:
Calculate the amounts of Cu and Br2 produced in 1.0 h at inert electrodes in a solution of CuBr2 by a current of 4.50 A.
MW (Cu) = 63.55 g/mol MW (Br2) = 160 g/mol n = 2 mol e-. Follow the units while remembering calculation string.
Given:
- current mm of br2 is 159.8
- electrodes in a solution of cubr2 are 3.5A
To find: calculate the amount of cu and br2.
Explanation:
as we know that,
the gram equivalent = Q/F
here Q is equal to I × t then,
gram equivalent (GE) = I × t/F
we have values,
F = 96500C
I = 3.5A
t = 1.5 × 3600 sec.
by putting all the values,
GE = ×
GE =
as we know that,
GE = w/eq.W
to find the value of eq.W,
eq.W = Mw/nf
nf for Cu = 2
nf for Br = 2
Mw of Cu = 63.5g
Mw of Br2 = 159.8g
eq.W for Cu = = 31.75
eq.W for Br = = 79.9
hence cu produced 31.75 and br produced 79.9.
