What is the number of faraday required to produce 0.18 ~g aluminium at cathode during electrolysis of molten AlCl ₃ ? (Molar mass of Al =27 ~g ~mol ⁻¹ )
Options
- A0.02 F
- B0.03 F
- C0.25 F
- D0.30 F
Correct answer
A. 0.02 F
Step-by-step solution
Al ³⁺+3 e ⁺ Al _ ( s ) 1 mol of Al (27 ~g ) requires 3 F (3 moles of electrons) 0.18 ~g of Al requires = 3 0.18 27 =0.02 ~F
