3. compare the mass of zinc produced on the iron nail to the mass of zinc lost from the zinc electrode. comment on any similarity or difference observed.

Respuesta :

The no loss of mass in the Mass of zinc produced in a iron nail is similar equal to the  Mass of Zn consumed.

What is mass?

It is the most fundamental characteristic of matter and one of the basic physical quantities. The amount of matter in a body is measured by its mass. Kilogram is the SI-defined mass unit (kg). It should be noted that a body's mass never changes.

What is zinc?

One of the most extensively used metals is zinc (Zn), a chemical element that is a low-melting metal of Periodic Table Group 12 (IIb, or the zinc group). Zinc is a necessity for life.

Mass of zinc produced in a iron nail = 0.620-0.610g

= 0.01g

Mass of Zn consumed = 5.720-5.710

=0.01g

Given length of the time run = 5 min

= 5*60= 300

from the faradays first law of electrolysis = I = mF/ Et

= 0.01* 96500/32.7*300

I= 0.098 amps

Mass of zinc produced in a iron nail is similar equal to the  Mass of Zn consumed, hence no loss of mass.

Therefore ,  no loss of mass in the Mass of zinc produced in a iron nail is similar equal to the  Mass of Zn consumed.
