at anode
2O2- +4e- →O2] x 3
at cathode

Or
4/3Al +2O2- → O2 +4/3Al

n= 12/3 = 4

In qualitative analysis, the metals of group I can be separted from other ions by precipitating them as chloride salts. A solution initially contains Ag+ and Pb2+ at a concentration of 0.10 M. Aqueous HCl is added to this solution until the Cl- concentration is 0.10 M. What will be the concentration of Ag+ and Pb2+ be at equilibrium? (Ksp for AgCl = 1.8 x 10-10, Ksp for PbCl2  = 1.7 x 10-5)

  • [Ag+]  = 1.8 x 10-7 M; [Pb2+] = 1.7 x 10-6 M

  • [Ag+]  = 1.8 x 10-11 M; [Pb2+] = 8.5 x 10-5 M

  • [Ag+]  = 1.8 x 10-9 M; [Pb2+] = 1.7 x 10-3 M

  • [Ag+]  = 1.8 x 10-9 M; [Pb2+] = 1.7 x 10-3 M
