A concentration cell consists of two half-cells. The electrolyte in compartment A is 0.13 M . The electrolyte in B is 0.87M . Which half-cell houses the cathode? What is the voltage of the cell?
Electrodes used in electrocardiography are disposable, and many incorporate silvers. The metal is deposited in a thin layer on a small plastic 鈥渂utton,鈥 and then some is converted to :
(a) If the surface area of the button isand the thickness of the silver layer is, calculate the volume (in) ofused in one electrode.
(b) The density of silver metal is . How many grams of silver are used per electrode?
(c) Ifis plated on the button from an solution with a current of, how many minutes does the plating take?
(d) If bulk silver costsper troy ounce (), what is the cost (in cents) of the silver in one disposable electrode?
In a concentration cell, is the more concentrated electrolyte in the cathode or the anode compartment? Explain.
Subterranean brines in parts of the United States are rich in iodides and bromides and serve as an industrial source of these elements. In one recovery method, the brines are evaporated to dryness and then melted and electrolyzed. Which halogen is more likely to form from this treatment? Why?
In the electrolysis of a molten mixture of KI and, identify the product that forms at the anode and at the cathode.
