Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(2: 3: 1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

From the Faradiay's IInd law, we know that \[ W \propto \text { Zit, } \quad W \propto \frac{E}{96500} i t \] or \(\quad\) it \(\propto \frac{1}{E}\) or electricity \(\propto \frac{1}{E}\) Thus, the amount of electricity required for \(\mathrm{ZnSO}_{4}, \mathrm{AlCl}_{3}\) and…
