How much charge is required for the reduction of 1 mole of `Cu^(2+)` to Cu?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine how much charge is required for the reduction of 1 mole of \( \text{Cu}^{2+} \) to \( \text{Cu} \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the Reduction Reaction The reduction of copper ions can be represented by the following half-reaction: \[ \text{Cu}^{2+} + 2 \text{e}^- \rightarrow \text{Cu} \] This equation shows that 1 mole of \( \text{Cu}^{2+} \) requires 2 moles of electrons for its reduction to metallic copper. ...
