Same amount of electricity is passed through aqueous solutions of AgNO ₃ and CuSO ₄ . The number of Ag and Cu atoms deposited are x and y respectively. The correct relationship between x and y is

Step-by-step solution

When same amount of electricity is passed through AgNO ₃ and CuSO ₄ aqueous solution. Then 1 mole of Ag ⁺ will deposit and half mole of Cu ²⁺ will deposite. The relations between Ag ⁺ and Cu ²⁺ ion is as follows 1 ~mol of Ag ⁺= 1 2 ~mol of Cu ²⁺ Thus for, x mol of Ag ⁺ y ~mol of Cu ²⁺ = 1 ~mol 1 / 2 ~mol x=2 y
