AI Generated Solution

To find the amount of silver deposited on the cathode when an electric current is passed through a silver voltameter, we can use the formula for mass deposited: \[ M = Z \times I \times T \] Where: - \( M \) is the mass of the substance deposited (in kg), - \( Z \) is the electrochemical equivalent (in kg/C), - \( I \) is the current (in A), ...
