  1. A \(+2\)
  2. B \(+1\)
  3. C \(+3\)
  4. D \(+\frac{3}{2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(+2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Charges passing through solution \(=5 \times 193=965 \mathrm{C}\) \(\mathrm{Cu}^{\mathrm{n}+}+\mathrm{ne} \rightarrow \mathrm{Cu}\) \(965 \mathrm{C}\) charge deposit \(0.32 \mathrm{~g}\)…
