Options

  1. A63.5g63. 5g
  2. B31.75g31. 75g
  3. C15.80g15. 80g
  4. Dunpredictable

Correct answer

C. 15.80g15. 80g

Step-by-step solution

Cu2++2e−⟶Cu...(i){Cu}^{2 +} + 2e^{-} ⟶ Cu... \left(i\right)

According to Faraday's first law, when an electric current is passed through an electrolyte, amount of substance deposited is directly proportional to the quantity of electric charge passed through the electrolyte.

∵1mol∵ 1mol of 63.5g63. 5g of CuCu is obtained by passing 2F2F of electricity.

Mass of CuCu obtained by passing 1F1F of electricity =63.52= \dfrac{63. 5}{2} g</p><p></p><p>∴MassofMass ofCuobtainedbypassing0.5Fobtained by passing 0. 5F of electricity
=63.52×0.5=15.80g= \dfrac{63. 5}{2} \times0. 5 = 15. 80g
