The number of moles of electrons required to deposit \(36 \mathrm{~g}\) of \(\mathrm{Al}\) from an aqueous solution of \(\mathrm{Al}\left(\mathrm{NO}_3\right)_3\) is (At. wt. of \(\mathrm{Al}=27\) )

  1. A \(4\)
  2. B \(2\)
  3. C \(3\)
  4. D \(1\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(4\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{Al}^{3+}+\underset{3 \mathrm{~mol}}{3 e^{-}} \longrightarrow \underset{1 \mathrm{~mol}=27 \mathrm{~g}}{\mathrm{Al}}\) \(\because 27 \mathrm{~g}\) of \(\mathrm{Al}\) is deposited by 3 moles of electrons \(\therefore 36 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{Al}\) will be deposited by…
