Suppose that a fully charged lead-acid battery contains 1.50 L of 5.00 M H2SO4. What will be the concentration of H2SO4 in the battery after 2.20 A of current is drawn from the battery for 9.50 hours ? Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The molar concentration of the solution is 4.46 M.

Explanation:

From the given,

Molarity of sulfuric acid = 5.00 M

Volume of sulfuric aci = 1.50L

Amperes of battery = 2.20 A

Time = 9.50 h

[tex]Charge= Current \times time(s)[/tex]

[tex]=2.30 \times 9.50 \times 3600 s = 78660 \, C[/tex]

[tex]Moles\,of\,electrons = \frac{charge}{Faraday\,constant}[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{78660}{96485}= 0.8153 mol[/tex]

[tex]Mole\,of\,H_{2}SO_{4}\,consumed = moles\,of\,electrons = 0.8153\,mol[/tex]

[tex]Initial\,moles\,of\,H_{2}SO_{4}\,=Volume \,\times Initial\,concentration[/tex]

[tex]1.50 \times 5.00 = 7.5\,mol[/tex]

[tex]Final\,moles\,of\,H_{2}SO_{4}=7.5-0.8513=6.6847\,mol[/tex]

[tex]Final\,concentration\,of\,H_{2}SO_{4}= \frac{final\,moles}{Volume}[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{6.6847}{1.50}=4.46M[/tex]

Therefore, The molar concentration of the solution is 4.46 M.

The concentration of H2SO4 is mathematically given as

FC=4.46M

What will be the concentration of H2SO4 in the battery after 2.20 A of current is drawn from the battery for 9.50 hours?

Question Parameter(s):

a fully charged lead-acid battery contains 1.50 L of 5.00 M H2SO4

the battery after 2.20 A of current

the battery for 9.50 hour

Generally, the equation for the  Charge is mathematically given as

Charge= Current *time

Therefofre

C=2.30 * 9.50* 3600 s

C= 78660 C

Moles of E=[tex]\frac{charge}{Faraday\ constant}[/tex]

Moles of E= 78660/96485

Moles of E= 0.8153 mol

In conclusion, Initial moles of H2SO4

M=1.50* 5.00

M= 7.5mol

Hence, final moles of H2SO4

FM=7.5-0.8513

FM=6.6847mol

Final concencetration of H2SO4  is now

FC= 6.6847/1.50

FC=4.46M
