\(30\text{ mL}\) of \(\text{NiSO}_4\) is electrolysed using a current of \(360\text{mA}\) for \(30\text{ minutes}\).
How much of the metal would have been plated out if the current efficiency is only \(60\%\)? (\(\text{Ni} = 58.7\text{g/mol}\))

  1. A \(11.82\text{g}\)
  2. B \(1.1102\text{g}\)
  3. C \(0.1182\text{g}\)
  4. D \(0.01182\text{g}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(0.1182\text{g}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(Q = I \times t = 0.360\text{ A} \times (30 \times 60)\text{ s} = 648\text{ C}\) \(Q_{eff} = Q \times \text{efficiency} = 648\text{ C} \times 0.60 = 388.8\text{ C}\)…
