If the change in free energy of a system is -899 Jmol-1 and the entropy change is 10Jmol-1k-1 at 250C, calculate the enthalpy change.

A.

+2081 Jmol-1

B.

-2081 Jmol-1

C.

-649 Jmol-1

D.

+649 Jmol-1

Correct answer is A

∆G = ∆H - T∆S
-899 = ∆H - 2980
∆H = -899 + 2980 = + 2081 Jmol-1

How many faraday of electricity is required to produce 0.25 mole of copper?

A.

1.00F

B.

0.01F

C.

0.05F

D.

0.50F

Correct answer is D

Cu → Cu2+ + 2e
1mole Cu requires 2f
0.25 mole Cu requires x
x = 0.25x2/1 = 0.50f

Calculate the quantity of electricity in coulombs required to liberate 10g of copper from a copper compound

[Cu=64, F = 96500 Cmol-1]

A.

32395.5

B.

30156.3

C.

60784.5

D.

15196.5

Correct answer is B

Cu → Cu2++ 2e
64g Cu requires 2 x 96500 coloumbs 10g Cu requires x columbs
x = 10x2x96500/64 =30156.3
