brown solid deposited at anode
If an ammeter in an electrolytic cell does not shows any reading, what could be wrong?
The wires is not connected properly
The power button is switched on
The analytical balance is not functioning properly
The stopwatch stop ticking
In the experiment to determine Faraday's Law, electrolytic cell is used. Which of the following is not a relevant precaution steps in this experiment?
The cathode electrode need to dry properly before the final mass is weighed
When running the electrolysis, both electrodes should not be in contact with each other.
The electrodes used should be cleaned with sand paper properly.
The electrodes need to immerse in the electrolyte fully.
The theoretical value of Faraday's Law is 96500 C. Choose the correct source of errors at which the experimental value is far from the theoretical value.
I. Inaccuracy in weighing II. Size of the electrodes III. Fluctuations in electric current IV. Colour of the electrolyte
II & IV
I, II, & III
I & III
All of the above
The following statement is true about the experiment to determine Faraday's Law except:
The electrolytic cell is set up using ammeter and power supply.
The electrolyte must be filled to 3/4 volume of the beaker
The time taken for the electrolysis should be recorded using a stopwatch
The electrode used at the cathode should be weighed immediately after the electrolysis is stopped
All experiment should be conducted with a noble manner. Which of the following is not a good noble value while conducting an experiment to determine Faraday's Law?
Clean up workplace after the experiment is done
If a hair dryer is used, make sure it was used at appropriate distance to the electrode
Put all used sand papers left in the dustbin
Pour back the electrolyte used in their original flask to avoid wasting
Why does the ammeter reading fluctuate during electrolysis?
The wires are not connected properly
Both electrodes touch each other
Both electrodes are not immerse in the electrolyte
The negative terminal is connected to anode and the positive terminal is connected to cathode
What is the function of TARE button on the analytical balance?
To stabilize the reading
To reset the reading to zero display
To hold the mass of the substances displayed
To remove the weight of the door of the analytical balance.
The following cause could affect the mass of electrode after electrolysis except?
The solid deposited at the bottom of the beaker is not collected
The analytical balance are closed while weighing.
The TARE button is not used.
The electrodes are weighed immediately after electrolysis stopped.
The following statement is correct for electrolysis involving copper electrode at cathode and carbon electrode at anode in CuSO4 solution
carbon electrode is connected to the positive terminal of the power supply
carbon electrode is connected to the negative terminal of the power supply
carbon electrode is connected to the ammeter
copper electrode is connected to the positive terminal of the power supply
What should we do if a small amount of copper deposited fell to the bottom of the beaker?
If it is a small amount, we can ignore as the small amount will not affect the final mass.
Try to collect the solid using filter paper, dry and add the mass with the mass of the electrode.
Try to collect the solid using filter paper, if the mass does not exceed 0.5 g, we should ignore the mass.
Try to collect the solid using filter paper, dry and add the mass with mass of the electrode only if it weighs more than 0.5 g.
Which of the following is the source of errors that could happen in the experiment of electrolytic cell
i. The volume of the electrolyte are not at appropriate meniscus level. ii. The volume of the electrolytes is not the same as instructed in the procedure. iii. The electrodes are not cleaned properly iv. The electrodes are left in contact with each other
ii. iii and iv
i, iii and iv
iii and iv
