Question
I need the answer at 20 minute
Assume that all solutions are at 25 degrees C.
An electrolytic cell is constructed using platinum electrodes in an aqueous NaHCO3 solution. The
electrolytic cell is attached to a 9V battery for 2.5 hours, producing 55 mL of H₂(g) at 1.00 atm and
298 K.
2HCO3(aq) + 2e → H2(g) + 2CO32-(aq)
E° = -0.83 V
O2(g) + 4CO2(g) + 2H2O(l) + 4e
4HCO3- (aq)
E° = 2.73 V
a. Identify the anode reaction, cathode reaction, and cell reaction.
Anode:
Cathode:
Cell:
b. Calculate the current running through the cell.
c. Calculate the total volume of gas produced during the electrolysis.
