Question on: JAMB Chemistry - 2018
What mass of Cu would be produced by the cathodic reduction of Cu\(^{2+}\) when 1.60A of current passes through a solution of CuSO\(_4\) for 1 hour. (F=96500Cmol\(^{-1}\) , Cu=64)
A
7.64g
B
3.82g
C
1.91g
D
0.96g

Correct Option: C
M = \(\frac{MmIT}{96500n}\)
Where
M=mass
Mm = Molar mass = 64g/mol
I = current = 1.6A
T= Time =1h r=3600s
N= No of Charge = +2
M = \(\frac{64x \times 1.6 \times 3600}{96500 \times 2}\)
M=1.91g
