Question

need help figuring out number 5 and also the second trial for number 4. if you can't see the number in the first box in trial one it's 5.8532. please help with those I haven't done and also make sure the rest is done right

Explanation / Answer

Q4) trial 2)

mass of Cu electrode lost=5.8226g-5.7938g=0.0288g

Cu2+ +2e --->Cu(s)

number of Cu in the electrolysis=2*number of electrons in the electrolysis=2*Charge/charge of 1 electron

Also charge=current*time =0.4995 C/s*180s=89.91 C

number of Cu in the electrolysis=2*89.91 C/(1.602*10^-19C/e)=1.122*10^21 Cu atoms

number of Cu atoms per gram=( 1.122*10^21atoms )/0.0288g)=3.896*10^22 Cu atoms /gram lost

5)trial 1) mass of Cu lost =5.8532g-5.8226g=0.0306g

mol of Cu atoms lost=mass/molar mass of Cu=0.0306g/(63.546g/mol)=0.000481 mol

number of Cu atoms lost=Avogadro's number*mol of Cu=NA*0.000481 mol

But acording to calculations,
number of Cu in the electrolysis=1.122*10^21 Cu atoms

So,NA*0.000481 mol=1.122*10^21 Cu atoms

NA=1.122*10^21 Cu atoms/0.000481mol=2.332*10^24 >>Actual Avogadro's number=1.066*10^23 atoms/mol

) trial 2)

mass of Cu electrode lost=5.8226g-5.7938g=0.0288g

mol of Cu atoms lost=mass/molar mass of Cu=0.0288g/(63.546g/mol)=0.000453 mol

number of Cu atoms lost=Avogadro's number*mol of Cu=NA*0.000453 mol

But acording to calculations,
number of Cu in the electrolysis=2* number of electrons=2*5.612*10^18 Cu atoms

So,NA*0.000453 mol=2*5.612*10^18 Cu atoms

NA=2*5.612*10^18 Cu atoms/0.000453mol=2.478*10^22<<Actual Avogadro's number=1.066*10^23 atoms/mol
