JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 2. Electrochemistry

The anodic half-cell of lead-acid battery is recharged using electricity of \(0.05\, Faraday\). The amount of \(PbSO_4\) electrolyzed in \(g\) during the process is (Molar mass of \(PbSO_4 = 303\, g\, mol^{-1}\))

  1. A \(22.8\)
  2. B \(15.2\)
  3. C \(7.6\)
  4. D \(11.4\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(7.6\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(Pb\,(s)\, + \,SO_4^{2 - }\, \to \,PbS{O_4}\, + \,2{e^ - }\) For \(2\,F\) current passed, \(PdSO_4\) deposited \(=\,303\,g/mol\) For \(0.05\,F\) \(:\,PdSO_4\) deposited \( = \,\frac{{0.05\, \times \,303}}{2}\, = \,7.6\,g\)
