Why CaCl_2 is used along with NaCl in the extraction of sodium ?

Read the following statements and select the correct option. Statement 1 : Malignant tumors normally remain confined to their original location, do not spread to other body parts and cause less damage. Statement 2 : Cancer arising from epithelial tissues of internal organs and glands is referred to as sarcoma e.g., breast cancer, cervical cancer etc.

During the discharge of a lead storage battery, the density of sulphuric acid fell from 1.294 to 1.139g // mL. Sulphuric acid of density 1.294 g // mL is 39% H_(2)SO_(4) by weight and that of density 1.139g // mL is 20% H_(2)SO_(4) by weight. The battery holds 3.5 L of the acid and the volume remained practically constant during the discharge. Calculate the number of ampere-hours for which the battery must have been used. The discharging reactions are Pb+ SO_(4)^(2-) rarr PbSO_(4) + 2e^(-) ( chargining) PbO_(2) + 4H^(+) + SO_(4)^(2-) + 2e^(-) rarr PbSO_(4) + 2H_(2) O ( dischargining)

In the process of electrolysis of CrO_(3) , the following reaction occurs. CrO_(3) ( aq) + 6H^(+) + 6e^(-) rarr Cr(s) + 3H_(2) O Calculate (i) amount of chromium deposited when 24,000 C of charge passed. (ii) time required to deposit 1.5g chromium using 12.5A current. ( Atomic mass of Cr = 52 )

Salts of A (atomic weight 7), B (atomic weight 27) and C (atomic weight 48) were electrolysed under identical condition using the same quantity of electricity. It was found that when 2.1 g of A was deposited, the eight of B and C deposited were 2.7 and 7.2 g. The valencies of A,B and C are respectively :

In the button cells, widely used in watches and other devices, the following reaction takes place Zn (s) + Ag_(2) O(s) + H_(2) O (l) rarrZn^(2+) (aq) + 2Ag(s) + 2OH^(-) (aq) Determine E^(@) and Delta G^(@) for the reaction. (Given, E_(Ag^(+)//Ag)^(@) = + 0.80 V, E_(Zn^(2+)//Zn)^(@) = -0.76 V )

Calculate the cell emf and Delta_(r ) G^(@) for the cell reation at 25^(@)C . Zn(s) | Zn^(@+) ( 0.1 M )|| Cd^(2+) ( 0.01M) | Cd(s) Given, E_(Zn^(2+) //Zn)^(@) = - 0.763V , E_(Cd^(2+) //Cd) ^(@) = - 0.403 V 1F = 96500 C "mol"^(-1) R = 8.314 JK^(-1) "mol"^(-1) ], Find E_("cell")^(@) = E_("cathode")^(@) - E_("anode")^(@) then Delta _(r ) G^(@) by using formula, Delta _(r ) G^(@) = - n FE_("cell")^(@)
