A current strength of 9.65 A is passed through excess fused `"AICI"_(3)` for 5 h. How many litres of chlorine will be liberated at STP? (F = 96500 C)

A

2.016

B

1.008

C

11.2

D

20.16

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
From Faraday first law of electrolysis
`w=zit`
`z= ("Atomic mass")/("electrons exchanged" xx 96500)`
`"CI"^(-) to (1)/(2) "CI"_2 + 1e^(-)`
`w= (35.5 xx 9.65 xx 5 xx 60 xx 60)/( 1 xx 96500)`
`= 63.9g`
`therefore` At STP, `71 g "CI_2"` has volume `= 22.4L`
`therefore` At STP, `63.9` g `"CI_2` will have volume `= (22.4 xx 63.9)/(71) = 20.16"L"`
