Q. 3 Faradays of electricity was passed through an aqueous solution of iron (II) bromide. The weight of iron metal (at. wt. = 56) deposited at the cathode (in g) is

Solution:

$F e^{2 +}+2e^{-} \rightarrow Fe$

$ \, \text{E}_{F e}=\frac{56}{2}=28$

$\text{w}_{F e}=E_{F e}\times \, $ number of Faraday

$=28\times 3=84 \, g$
