Question
A factory wants to produce $1.00 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~kg}$ barium from the electrolysis of molten barium chloride. What current must be applied for $4.00 \mathrm{~h}$ to accomplish this?
Step 1
First, we need to find the number of moles of barium (Ba) that the factory wants to produce. We can do this using the molar mass of Ba, which is 137.33 g/mol. Number of moles of Ba = (1.00 x 10^3 kg) / (137.33 g/mol) * (1000 g/kg) Number of moles of Ba ≈ Show more…
