Question
Chapter 19, Problem 55E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
It should be shown that one of the advantages of the aluminum-air battery over the iron-air and zinc-air batteries is the greater quantity of charge transferred per unit mass of metal consumed.
Concept introduction:
Aluminum air battery produces electricity from the reaction of aluminum with the atmospheric oxygen.
The two half reactions are as follows:
Reduction:
Oxidation:
The overall reaction can be obtained by multiplying equation (1) by 3 and equation (2) by 4.
Therefore, the overall reaction is,
