Copper sulphate solution `(250 ML)` was electrolyzed using a platinum anode and a copper cathode. A constant current of `2mA` was passed for `16 mi n`. It was found that after electrolysis the absorbance of the solution was reducted to `50%` of its original value . Calculate the concentration of copper sulphate in the solution to begin with.
