Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) (A), (B), (C), (D)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( Q = I \times t = 20 \, \mathrm{A} \times (30 \times 60) \, \mathrm{s} = 36000 \, \mathrm{C} \) \( m = \frac{Q \times M}{n \times F} \) \( m_W = \frac{36000 \times 184}{6 \times 96485} \approx 11.44 \, \mathrm{g} \)…
