Suppose a current of 0.860A flows through a copper wire for 5.0 minutes. Calculate how many moles of electrons travel through the wire. Be sure your answer has the correct unit symbol and round your answer to 2 significant digits.

2.7×10⁻³ mole

Explanation:

Applying

Q = it Equation 1

Where Q = amount of charge, i = current, t = time

From the question,

Given: i = 0.860 A, t = 5 minutes = (5×60) seconds = 300 seconds

Subsitute these values into equation 1

Q = (0.860×300)

Q = 258 C

If one mole of electron has a charge of 96500 C

Then, x mole of electron will have a charge of 258 C

1 mole ⇒ 96500 C

X moles ⇒ 258 C

Solve for X

X = (258×1)/96500

X = 2.7×10⁻³ mole

definition

                    entropy is a measure of the randomness or the extent of disorder of a chemical process.

                      enthalpy is a measure of the heat change of a reaction occurring at a constant pressure.

measurement units:

                        entropy is measured in joule per kelvin (jk⁻¹)   whereas enthalpy is measured in joule per mole (jmol⁻¹)

requirements:

                            entropy has no requirements or limits, and its change is measured by the division between the heat change of the chemical process and the temperature.

                              in contrast, enthalpy can only be related to the heat change of the reaction under standard conditions.
