Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 80 g

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \text{Ca}^{2+} + \text{2e}^- \rightarrow \text{Ca} \) \( \text{Moles of Ca} = \frac{4 \text{ F}}{2 \text{ F/mol}} = 2 \text{ mol} \) \( \text{Mass of Ca} = 2 \text{ mol} \times 40 \text{ g/mol} = 80 \text{ g} \)
