A student wants to electroplate a nickel wire with copper. The student has 1 g of copper sulfate and a 2 M solution of sulfuric acid. The wire has a surface area of 3 cm², and the desired copper thickness on the wire is 0.025 cm. How long should the student electroplate the wire with a current of 1.5 A to achieve the desired thickness of copper? Calculate the current density in the electrochemical cell.

A chemistry student wants to determine the percentage of ethanol in a sample of wine. The student takes a 50 mL aliquot of the wine, dries it, and finds the weight of the residual solids to be 0.325 g. The student then distills the rest of the wine, evaporates the distillate to dryness, and finds the weight of the residue to be 2.324 g. Using mass balance calculations, what is the percentage of ethanol in the wine sample?
