In electroplating, how should the object that will be plated be connected in the electrolytic cell?
It should be the cathode, where metal atoms are reduced to metal ions.
It should be the cathode, where metal ions are reduced to metal atoms.
It should be the anode, where metal atoms are oxidized to metal ions.
It should be the anode, where metal ions are oxidized to metal atoms.

The atomic radius of sodium is 186 pm and of chlorine is 100 pm. the ionic radius for na+ is 102 pm and for cl– is 181 pm. in going from na to cl in period 3, why does the atomic radius decrease while the ionic radius increases? a. the inner electrons in the sodium cation shield its valence electrons more effectively than the inner electrons in the chloride anion do. b. the inner electrons shield the valence electrons more effectively in the chlorine atom than in the chloride anion. c. the outermost electrons in chloride experience a smaller effective nuclear charge than those in the sodium cation do. d. the outermost electrons in chloride experience a larger effective nuclear charge than those in the sodium cation do. e. monatomic ions are bigger than the atoms from which they are formed.

How many liters of oxygen gas, at standard temperature and pressure, will react with 35.8 grams of iron metal? 4 fe (s) + 3 o₂ (g) → 2 fe₂o₃ (s)

The human eye contains a molecule called 11-cis-retinal that changes shape when struck with light of sufficient energy. the change in shape triggers a series of events that results in an electrical signal being sent to the brain that results in vision. the minimum energy required to change the conformation of 11-cis-retinal within the eye is about 164 kj/mol.
