Chemistry Question on Electrochemistry

96500 C electricity is passed through CuSO4CuSO_4. The amount of copper precipitated is

A

0.25 mole

B

0.5 mole

C

10 mole

D

2 .00 mole

Answer

0.5 mole

Explanation

Solution

Cu2+1mole+2e2Faraday=2×96500C>Cu\underset{1\,mole}{Cu^{2+}} + \underset{2 Faraday = 2\times 96500 \,C}{2e^-} {->} Cu 2×96500C 2\times 96500 \,C deposits 11 mole of copper 96500C96500 \,C deposits 0.50.5 mole of copper.
