In the electrolysis of `H_(2)SO_(4)` 0.2 gram hydrogen is produced, hence the weight of another substance produced is

Options

A. 1.6 gram
B. 3.2 gram
C. 6.1 gram
D. 19.2 gram

Answer

A

Explanation

In the electrolysis of dil. `H_(2)SO_(4)` the electrolysis takes place as
`H_(2)O hArr H^(+)+OH^(-)`
At anode `" " 2OH^(-) to H_(2)O+[O]+2e^(-)`
At cathode `" " 2H^(+)+2e^(-) to 2[H]`
`therefore W+[O]:W+2[H^(+)] therefore 16:2 therefore 8:1`
