Mass in grams of copper deposited by passing current through a voltmeter containing copper sulphate for is (Given: Molar mass of Cu: , )
0.315 g
31.5 g
0.0315 g
3.15 g
Given: Current () = Time () = Molar mass of Cu () = Faraday's constant () =
Total charge () passed through the solution is:
The reduction reaction for copper from copper sulphate is: Here, moles of electrons are required to deposit () of copper.
According to Faraday's first law of electrolysis, the mass () deposited is:
