If a current of 0.5A flows through a metallic wire for 2h, then how many electrons would flow through the wire?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`Q=Ixxt=0.5xx2xx60xx60=3600C`
96500C of charge = 1 mol of electrons `=6.022xx10^(23)` electrons
Therefore, number of electrons associated with 3600 C of charge `=(6.022xx10^(23)xx3600)/(96500)=2.25xx10^(22)`
