When an electric current is passed through acidified water, `112ml` of `H_(2)` gas at `NTP` is collected at the cathode is `965` seconds. The current passed in amperes is

A

`(2.0)`

B

`(1.0)`

C

`(0.1)`

D

`(0.5)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`2H^(+)2e^(-e)toH_2` ( at cathode)
`W=ZIt=(E It)/(96500)`
Moles of `H_2` deposited `(W)=" Moles" xx "molar mass"(112)/(22400)xx2`
Thus,`112/22400xx2=(1xxIxx965)/96500=I=1A`
