The cost of electrical energy in the pro...

The cost of electrical energy in the production of `"x L H"_(2)` at STP by electrolysis of acidified water , is x rupees . Calculate the cost of electrical energy to produce xL of `o^(2)` at STP .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Ration of volumes of `H_(2)` to `O_(2)` evolved in electrolysis is `=2:1`
Hence, `"xL H_(2)-=(x)/(2)LO_(2)-=x` rupees (for a definite amount of electricity) therefore `xLO_(2)-="2x rupees"`
