In electrolysis of a fused salt, the weight of the deposit on an electrode will not depend on

A

Temperature of the bath

B

Current intensity

C

Electrochemical equivalent of ions

D

Time for electrolysis

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The amount deposited is directly proportional to current intensity, electrochemical equivalent of ions and the time for electrolysis and is independent of the temperature.

A 4.0 molar aqueous solution of NaCl is prepared and 500mL of this solution is electrolysed. This leads to the evolution of chlorine gas at one of the electrodes (Atomic mass: Na= 23: Hg=200, 1 faraday= 96500 coulomb) If the cathode is a Hg electrode, the maximum weight (in g) of Na-Hg amalgam formed from this solution is

Faraday's first law of electrolysis: Amount of a substance deposited or liberated on respective electrode is directly proportional to the quantity of electricity following through the circuit. W prop Q rArr W= ZQ W= Zit where Z= electrochemical equivalent of the substance. (i) In order to deposit or liberate 1 mole of substance, integeral no of Faradays are required. (ii) In order to deposit one gram equivalent of substance, 1 Faraday electricity is required. Current efficiency = ("Actual yield")/("Theoritical yield") xx 100% For the reaction, 2CH_(3)COO^(-) rarr C_(2)H_(6)(g) + 2CO_(2)(g) + 2e^(-) . If current of 20A is passed for 965sec, volume of liberated gases measured at NTP is found to be 3.36 lit, then calculate current efficiency of the reaction
