Water can be decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen gases through a process called electrolysis. When an electric current is passed through water, it breaks the water molecules (H₂O) into their constituent elements, producing hydrogen (H₂) at the cathode and oxygen (O₂) at the anode. This reaction is commonly used in various applications, including hydrogen production and fuel cells.
When a salt is added to the water, it will be decomposed to it's ion. Ions has ability to conduct the electricity.
To find the mass of water decomposed, we first need to calculate the total mass of the products formed, which is 4g (hydrogen gas) + 32g (oxygen gas) = 36g. The original mass of water decomposed is equal to the total mass of products formed, so 36g of water is decomposed.
Yes, decomposed granite is porous because it is made up of small particles that allow water to pass through and drain easily. This makes it a popular choice for landscapes and pathways where good drainage is desired.
Generally, pure water is a poor conductor of electricity. However, water with impurities such as salts or minerals can conduct electricity better. Other liquids that are good conductors of electricity include acids, bases, and some metals in liquid form like mercury.
Calcium oxide, or quicklime, can be decomposed chemically into its components, calcium and oxygen. Calcium is an element and cannot be decomposed chemically.
By passing electricity through it.
Yes, water can be decomposed by electricity into the elements hydrogen and oxygen. This process is known as electrolysis, where an electric current is passed through water to separate it into its constituent elements.
When a salt is added to the water, it will be decomposed to it's ion. Ions has ability to conduct the electricity.
Sucrose can be decomposed chemically as it is a compound composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms. Sodium is an element, and ethanol is a compound made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, but water is a compound that cannot be decomposed chemically as it is already in its simplest form.
Electricity produced from water is also known as Hydro electricity. In this form of electricity production large turbines are run with the force of water to produce electricity.
No. Sodium is an element and elements cannot be broken down (decomposed) by a chemical change.
Electrolysis is the process by which ionic substances are decomposed (broken down) into simpler substances when an electric current is passed through them.
It depends. Pure water do not conduct electric current; on the other hand, we consider tap and river water as a conductor because of the ions of the decomposed materials in the water. Water transmits electricity, heat, and sound very well, so it is a conductor. An insulator would not transmit electricity, heat, or sound well.
Boil it
None are. The elements are not decomposed: the water is. The elements released by the reaction are hydrogen and oxygen.
