The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will use the relationship between the mass of a substance liberated during electrolysis and the charge passed through the electrolyte. According to Faraday's laws of electrolysis, the mass (m) of a substance liberated is directly proportional to the quantity of charge (Q) passed through the electrolyte. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the initial conditions**: - Given: \( Q_1 = 10^5 \) coulombs (initial charge) - Mass of silver liberated with this charge: \( m_1 = 1 \) gram 2. **Understand the relationship**: - According to Faraday's law, the mass liberated is directly proportional to the charge: \[ m \propto Q \] - This can be expressed as: \[ \frac{m_1}{m_2} = \frac{Q_1}{Q_2} \] 3. **Determine the new charge**: - The problem states that the charge is doubled: \[ Q_2 = 2 \times Q_1 = 2 \times 10^5 \text{ coulombs} \] 4. **Set up the equation**: - Using the proportionality relationship: \[ \frac{m_1}{m_2} = \frac{Q_1}{Q_2} \] - Substituting the known values: \[ \frac{1 \text{ gram}}{m_2} = \frac{10^5}{2 \times 10^5} \] 5. **Simplify the equation**: - This simplifies to: \[ \frac{1}{m_2} = \frac{1}{2} \] 6. **Solve for \( m_2 \)**: - Cross-multiplying gives: \[ m_2 = 2 \text{ grams} \] ### Final Answer: The amount of liberated silver (Ag) when the charge is doubled is **2 grams**.
