Two voltameters, one of copper and another of silver, are joined in parallel. When a total charge q flows through the voltameters, equal amount of metals are deposited. If the electrochemical equivalents of copper and silver are `Z_1` and `Z_2` respectively the charge which flows through the silver voltameter is

A

`q(z_(1))/(z_(2))`

B

`q(z_(2))/(z_(1))`

C

`(q)/(1+(z_(1))/(z_(2)))`

D

`(q)/(1+(z_(2))/(z_(1)))`
