Prelab for Electrolysis SD
What acts as the cathode (negative end) in this experiment
The copper wire
What property of the metal is measured in this experiment?
Loss of mass of the metal
The purpose of this experiment is to
find the molar mass of a metal using moles of hydrogen produced when the metal is oxidized.
The H+ in this experiment is
reduced to H2 gas.
The barometric pressure of a room at 26 degrees C is found to be 752.0 mm Hg. The vapor pressure of water at this temperature is 25.2 mm Hg. What is the partial pressure of H2 in a buret in this room during a similar experiment to this one?
726.8 mm Hg
How many moles of H2 gas are present if the partial pressure of H2 gas is 0.956 atm, its volume is 0.09500 L, and the temperature is 299 K. (Use R = 0.08206 L atm/K/mol).
HINT : Use PV = nRT
0.00370 moles
