108gofsilver(molarmassof silver (molar mass108g{mol}^{- 1})isdepositedatcathodefrom) is deposited at cathode from{AgNO}_{3}(aq)\left(aq\right) solution by a certain quantity of electricity. The volume (in LL ) of oxygen gas produced at 273K273K and 11 bar pressure from water by the same quantity of electricity is ________

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

(nAg)deposit=108108=1mole{\left({n}_{Ag}\right)}_{deposit} = \dfrac{108}{108} = 1mole
Ag++e−⟶Ag{Ag}^{+} + {e}^{-} ⟶ Ag
1F1F charge is required to deposit 1mole1mole of AgAg
H2O{H}_{2}O ⟶12O2+2H++2e−⟶ \dfrac{1}{2}{O}_{2} + 2{H}^{+} + 2{e}^{-}
2F2F charge is required to deposit 12mole\dfrac{1}{2}mole
1F1F charge will deposit 14mole\dfrac{1}{4}mole of O2{O}_{2} gas.
VO2=nRTP{V}_{{O}_{2}} = \dfrac{nRT}{P}
=14×0.0821×2731=14×22.4= \dfrac{1}{4} \times \dfrac{0.0821 \times 273}{1} = \dfrac{1}{4} \times 22.4
VO2=5.6L{V}_{{O}_{2}} = 5.6L

Faraday's second law of electrolysis states that, when the same quantity of electricity is passed through several electrolytes, the mass of the substances deposited are proportional to their respective equivalent weight.
