Test: Electrochemistry - Question 1

Why does an electrolyte need to be either molten or in solution?

Detailed Solution for Test: Electrochemistry - Question 1
If the electrolyte is solid, the ions are unable to move and so electricity cannot flow. You should have discarded the first option the second you read the word 'atoms' - atoms have no overall charge and therfore are unaffected by electrolysis
Test: Electrochemistry - Question 2

Pick the correct half equations to show what happens when PbBr2 is electrolysed.

Test: Electrochemistry - Question 3

Pick the correct combination for the names of the positive and negative electrodes.

Detailed Solution for Test: Electrochemistry - Question 3

Electrodes get their names from the type of ion they attract

Test: Electrochemistry - Question 4

Pick the correct half equations to show what happens when an aqueous solution of KCL is electrolysed.

Detailed Solution for Test: Electrochemistry - Question 4

Hydrogen gas is produced because it is less reactive than potassium

Test: Electrochemistry - Question 5

When a negatively charged ion reaches the positively charged electrode...

Detailed Solution for Test: Electrochemistry - Question 5

Many anions (e.g sulfate - SO42-) are too stable to lose their electron and in those cases oxygen is released from the small quantity of hydroxide ions that are always present in water. Substances containing the stable anions are therefore only electrolytes when in solution

Test: Electrochemistry - Question 6
Electrolysis means which of the following?
Detailed Solution for Test: Electrochemistry - Question 6
It is a chemical decomposition
Test: Electrochemistry - Question 7

Pick the correct combination to show what is collected at each electrode when molten copper bromide is electrolysed.

Detailed Solution for Test: Electrochemistry - Question 7

Bromine has a red-brown colour and its molecules are diatomic (contain 2 atoms bonded covalently so its formula is Br2)

Test: Electrochemistry - Question 8

What is the function of a salt bridge in an electrochemical cell?

Detailed Solution for Test: Electrochemistry - Question 8

A salt bridge allows ions to migrate between the half-cells, maintaining electrical neutrality and allowing the cell to operate continuously.

Test: Electrochemistry - Question 9

What happens to the concentration of the electrolyte as an electrochemical cell operates over time? 

Detailed Solution for Test: Electrochemistry - Question 9

As the cell operates, ions migrate, and reactions occur, leading to changes in concentration. Typically, the electrolyte concentration decreases in both compartments.

Test: Electrochemistry - Question 10

What is the purpose of a platinum electrode in an electrolytic cell? 

Detailed Solution for Test: Electrochemistry - Question 10

Platinum electrodes are inert and do not participate in reactions, thus preventing unwanted side reactions during electrolysis.
