A current of `2` A was passed for `1 h` through a solution of `CuSO_4. 0.237g` of `Cu^(2+)` ions was discharged at cathode . The current efficiency is .

A

` 42. 2%`

B

` 26 .1%`

C

` 10%`

D

` 40.01 %`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

` W= ( 63.5)/(2xx 96500) xx 2 xx 60 xx 60= 2 37 g`
`%` of efficlency `= (0. 237)/(2.37) xx 10%`.
