Note: Imaginary Elements Are Used in the Following Question

Question 143

Short Answer

Note: Imaginary elements are used in the following question. An electrolysis study was carried to determine the atomic weight of nortonium from a study on the compound, nortonium chloride. Another study had established that the formula was probably NtCl2. In the present study, electrolysis was carried on an aqueous sample of nortonium chloride, and the quantity of electrical energy was carefully measured. A current measuring 1.550 amperes at a voltage of 12.25 V, was passed through the electrolysis with the aqueous nortonium chloride solution, starting at 2:00:00 P.M. and ending at 2:53:30 P.M., the same day. The amount of nortonium which plated out on the cathode measured 2.848 g. From this data, calculate a value for the atomic weight of nortonium.Hint: Use dimensional analysis to find the moles of nortonium, then find atomic weight.
