Q.
When same quantity of electricity is passed through aqueous AgNO3 and H2SO4 solutions connected in series, 5.04×10−2g of H2 is liberated. What is the mass of silver (in grams) deposited? (Eq. wts. of hydrogen = 1.008, silver = 108)
Given, weight of hydrogen liberated =5.04×10−2g
Eq. wt. of hydrogen =1.008
Eq. wt. of silver =108
Weight of silver deposited, w=?
According to Faraday's second law of electrolysis weight of hydrogen liberated weight of silver deposited = eq. wt. of hydrogeon eq. wt .of silver 5.04×10−2w=1.008108 W=1.008108×5.04×10−2 =5.4g
