Question: 6
Define Electrochemistry
Answer: 6
6-35
"Electrochemistry is the branch of chemistry which deals with the relationship between electricity and chemical reactions."
Question: 7
What Is the shape of cathode in Nelson's cell? Why is it perforated?
Answer: 7
7-35
In Nelson's cell cathode is made of iron and have U-Shaped. It is perforated because extra brine or NaOH can be easily separated.
Question: 8
Difference between Cathode and Anode?
Answer: 8
8-35
Cathode:
The electrode connected to negative terminal of battery is called Cathode
Question: 9
Why steel is plated with nickel before the electroplating of chromium?
Answer: 9
9-35
The steel is usually plated first with nickel on copper and then by chromium because it does not adhere well on the steel surface, Moreover, it allows moisture to pass thrugh it and metal is striped off. The nickel or copper provides adhesion and then chromium deposited over the adhesive layer of copper lasts longer.This type of electroplating resists corrosion and gives a bright silvery appearance to the object.
Question: 10
Anode of downs cell in made up of non-metal, what is its name? What is the function of this anode?
Answer: 10
10-35
Anode of downs cell is made of non-metal its name is graphite. The Cl ion are oxidized to give Cl2 gas at anode.
Question: 11
Which type of chemical reaction takes place in electrolytic cell?
Answer: 11
11-35
In electrolytic cell non spontaneous reaction take place.
Question: 12
Which force drives the non-spontancous reaction to take place?
Answer: 12
12-35
Non-spontaneous reactions are those which take place i the presence of an external agent. Those external agents are electrons that cause electricity , So electric energy helps the non spontaneous reaction to proceed.
Question: 13
What is redox reaction?
Answer: 13
13-35
The reaction in which simultaneously oxidation and reduction takes place is called redox reaction.
Question: 14
Which material is used to make cathode in electroplating?
Answer: 14
14-35
The cathode is made of the objects tht is to be electroplated e.g. sheet of iron.
Question: 15
What is non-spontaneous reactions.
Answer: 15
15-35
Non-spontaneous reactions are those which take place in the presence of an external agent.
Question: 16
What is meant by electrolytic cell?
Answer: 16
16-35
The type of electrochemical cell in which a non-spontaneous chemical reaction takes place when electric current is passed through the solution is called electrolytic cell.
Question: 17
State the best method for protection of metal from corrusion.
Answer: 17
17-35
The best method for protection against the corrosion of metals exposed to acidic conditions is coating the metal with other metal. Corrosion resistant metals like Zn,Sn and Cr are coated on the surface of iron to protect it from corrosion.
Question: 18
What do you mean by galvanizing?
Answer: 18
18-35
The process of coating a thin layer of zinc on iron is called galvanizing.
Question: 19
What is meant by salt bridge?
Answer: 19
19-35
Salt bridge is a U-shape and glass tube .
It consists of saturated solution of strong electrolyte supported in jelly type material
Question: 20
Define Electroplating?
Answer: 20
20-35
Electroplating is depositing of one metal over the other by means of electrolysis.
Question: 21
Explain oxidation and Reduction Oxidation:
Answer: 21
21-35
Oxidation :
The process in which loss of electrons take place from an atom or ion is called as oxidation
Question: 22
Which ions are discharged at cathode in Nelson's cell and what is produced at cathode?
