A solution of aluminium chloride is electrolysed for 30 minutes using a current of 2 A . The amount of the aluminium deposited at the cathode is [Given : molar mass of aluminium and chlorine are 27 ~g ~mol ⁻¹ and 35.5 ~g ~mol ⁻¹ respectively. Faraday constant .=96500 C mol ⁻¹ ]
Options
- A1.660 g
- B0.336 g
- C0.441 g
- D1.007 g
Correct answer
B. 0.336 g
Step-by-step solution
