Calculate the amount of electricity required to deposit 1 mole of aluminum from a solution of AlCl3\text{AlCl}_3.

Options

  1. A0.330.33 Faraday
  2. B11 Faraday
  3. C33 Faraday
  4. D1.331.33 Faraday

Correct answer

C. 33 Faraday

Step-by-step solution

The dissociation of AlCl3\text{AlCl}_3 gives Al3+\text{Al}^{3+} ions.

The reduction reaction at the cathode is:

Al3++3e−→Al\text{Al}^{3+} + 3e^{-} \rightarrow \text{Al}

From the stoichiometry of the reaction, 11 mole of Al\text{Al} requires 33 moles of electrons.

Since 11 mole of electrons carries a charge of 11 Faraday, the amount of electricity required is 33 Faraday.

Answer: 33 Faraday
