Symbol for lead (II) Bromide
|
PbBr2
|
|
When does the lead (II) Bromide begin behaving as an electrolyte
|
When it is heated to a molten state.
|
|
Chemical Equation of lead (II) Bromide
|
Lead (ii) Bromide (l) - - - > Bromide + Lead
PbBr2 (l) - - - > Br2 (g) + Pb (l) |
|
The half equation that occurs at the Cathode in the electrolysis of Lead (ii) Bromide
|
Lead ion + electrons - - - > lead atom
Pb^+2(l) + 2e - - - > Pb (l) |
|
Reduction
|
The process of losing oxygen or gaining electrons
|
|
The half equation that occurs at the Anode in the electrolysis of Lead (ii) Bromide
|
Oxygen had Br^- (l) - - electrolysis - > Br + e
|
|
The products of the electrolysis of Lead (ii) Bromide (qualitatively)
|
Oxygen Molten lead and orange bromine vapour
|
|
General principal of products from electrolysis
|
Metals and Hydrogen form at the Cathode
Non metals form at the Anode |
|
Why is pure aluminium so rare?
|
It is very reactive
|
|
The Hall Heroult process
|
Bauxite is treated to improve conductivity. The aluminium oxide is then dissolved in molten cryolite, to reduce the energy needed for electrolysis. The mixture is then electrolysed.
|
|
Half equation that occurs at the Anode of the electrolysis of Aluminium Oxide
|
Oxide Ions - - - > oxygen molecules + electrons
2O^-2 - - - > O2 (g) + 4e |
|
Half equation that occurs at the Cathode of the electrolysis of Aluminium Oxide
|
Aluminium Ions + electrons - - - > aluminium metal
Al^3 + 3e - - - > Al |
|
The products of the electrolysis of Aluminium Oxide (qualitatively)
|
Oxygen gas and aluminium metal.
|
|
What sometimes happens during the electrolysis of Aluminium Oxide
|
The liberated air reacts with the graphite anodes producing CO2
|
|
Chemical Equation of Aluminium Oxide
|
Aluminium Oxide - -electrolysis - > aluminium + oxygen
2Al2O3 - - - > 4Al + 3O2 |
|
How can water be electrolysed
|
a Hofmann Voltameter and some dilute sulfuric acid can be used to decompose water.
|
|
Half equation that occurs at the Anode of the electrolysis of Water
|
Hydroxide ions ---> water + oxygen + electrons
4OH- (aq) ---> 2H2O(l) + O2 + 4e |
