Can someone find the answers to Ecology Chemistry Unit Test
on pearson Please!? Please and thanks you soo much!!

At the anode you have Ga^3+ + 3e ==> Ga
At the cathode you have 2Cl^- ==> Cl2 + 2e
-------------------------------------------------------
overall: 2Ga^3+ + 6Cl^- ==> 2GaCl3
Note: GaCl3 actually occurs, like AlCl3, as the dimer; i.e., Ga2Cl6
Can't help on the other. Wouldn't anyway since that's answer mooching.
