  2. B \(46\)
  3. C \(49\)
  4. D \(41\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(46\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \mathrm{Zn}^{+2}+2 \mathrm{e}^{-} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Zn} \) \( \mathrm{W}=\mathrm{Z} \times \mathrm{i} \times \mathrm{t} \) \( =\frac{65.4}{2 \times 96500} \times 0.015 \times 15 \times 60 \) \( =45.75 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{gm}\)
