Oxygen Supply in Submarines Nuclear submarines can stay under water nearly indefinitely because they can produce their own oxygen by the electrolysis of water.
How many liters of O2 at 298 K and 1.00 bar are produced in 1.50 hr in an electrolytic cell operating at a current of 0.0200 A?
Electrolysis of water is given below:
At cathode: 4H+(aq) + 4e- -----------> 2H2(g)
At Anode: 2H2O(l) -------> O2(g) + 4H+ + 4e-
1.5 hrs = 5400 sec
Total charge = Q = current * time (in sec)
Q = 0.02*5400 = 108 coulombs
We know that,
96500 Coulombs charge is carried by 1 mole electrons
So, 108 Coulomb charge is carried by 102/96500 moles of electrons.
So, moles of e- = 108/96500 = 0.00112 moles
From reaction at Anode, it is clear that 4 moles of e- produces 1 mole of O2
So, moles of O2 (n)= 0.00112/4 = 0.00028 moles
P = 1 bar = 0.987 atm , T = 298K , R = 0.0821 L atm/mol K
Let volume of O2 is V liters
Also,
PV = nRT then V = nRT/P
V = 0.00028*0.0821*298/0.987 = 0.00695 liters
OR
V = 0.007 Liters ...... Answer

In a hydrogen fuel cell, oxygen and hydrogen are combincd to produce water and a small potential differ- ence. The steps of the chemical reaction are: at-electrode: at + electrode: H2 + 20H-→ 2H2O + 2e-; O2 + H2O + 2e-→ 2OH-, Use the table of chemical values to calculate a) the work that can be produced from this fuel cell, b) the 'waste' heat produced during standard operation, c) the voltage of the cell, and d) the minimum voltage...
Sulfur dioxide, SO, (g), can react with oxygen to produce sulfur trioxide, SO,(g), by the reaction 2 502(g) + O2(g) — 2503(g) The standard enthalpies of formation for SO, (g) and SO2(g) are AH (S02(8)] = -296.8 kJ/mol AH; [s0,() = –395.7 kJ/mol Calculate the amount of energy in the form of heat that is produced when a volume of 4.46 L of So, (g) is converted to 4.46 L of SO2(g) according to this process at a constant pressure...

Whenever organic matter is decomposed under oxygen-free (anaerobic) conditions, methane is one of the products. Thus, enormous deposits of natural gas, which is almost entirely methane, exist as a major source of fuel for home and industry. a. It is estimated that known sources of natural gas can produce 5600 EJ of energy (1 EJ = 1018 J). Current total global energy usage is 4.0 x 102 EJ per year. Find the mass (in kg) of known sources of natural...
10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
