A solution of CuSO _4 is electrolysed for 10 minutes using a current of amperes. ( 1 mol of \(Cu =63 g\) ). How much copper is deposited at cathode
\(1 F=96487 C mol^{-1}\)

  1. A 0.2938 g
  2. B 2.938 g
  3. C 29.38 g
  4. D 0.02938 g
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 0.2938 g

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(t = 10 \text{ min} = 600 \text{ s}\) \(Q = I \times t = 1.5 \text{ A} \times 600 \text{ s} = 900 \text{ C}\) \(n_{Cu} = \frac{Q}{2F} = \frac{900 \text{ C}}{2 \times 96487 \text{ C/mol}} \approx 0.004663 \text{ mol}\)…
