Calculate the equivalent weight and electrochemical equivalent of copper deposited from cupric salt (At. Wt of `Cu = 63.5)`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Deposition of Cu from cupric salt electrolytically is given as , `Cu^(2+) + 2e^(-) to Cu`
Equivalent weight of copper = `("Atomic weight")/("Number of Faraday") = (63.5)/(2) = 31.75`.
Electrochemical equivalent of copper = `("Equivalent weight")/(96,500) = (31.75)/(96,500) = 3.29 xx 10^(-4) g "coul"^(-1)`.
