The anodic half-cell of lead-acid battery is recharged using electricity of 0.05 Faraday. The amount of P b S O 4 electrolyzed (in g) during the process is (Molar mass of P b S O 4 = 303 g m o l - 1 )
Options
- A22.8
- B15.2
- C7.6
- D11.4
Correct answer
C. 7.6
Step-by-step solution
A PbSO 4 s 0.05 / 2 + 2 OH − → PbO 2 + H 2 SO 4 + 2 e − 0.05 F C PbSO 4 s 0.05 / 2 + 2 e − 0.05 F + 2 H + → Pb s + H 2 SO 4 n PbSO 4 = 0.05 2   mole w PbSO 4 = 0.05 2 × 303 = 7.6   gm
