Question
An aqueous sodium chloride solution is electrolyzed using a current of 4.42 A. How much time (min) is required to collect
15.5 L of chlorine if the gas is collected over water at 20.0°C ánd the total pressure is 107.5 kPa?
Assume that the water is already saturated with chlorine so no more dissolves. Assume Ptotal(gas)
P(Cl2,g) + P(H20,g)
and that the correction for column height is negligible. The vapor pressure of water at 20.0°C is 2.34 kPa, F = 96485 C/mol
e". and R = 8.314 kPa-L-mol1.K´1
Enter your final answer for the time required in units of minutes. Include only the numerical answer (no units).
