Calculate the quantity of electricity that would be required to reduce 12.3 gm of nitrobenzene to aniline if current efficiency is 50%

A

347400 coulomb

B

115800 coulomb

C

23160 coulomb

D

694800 coulomb

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`C_(6)H_(5)NO_(2)+6H^(+)+6e^(-)rarrC_(6)NH_(2)+2H_(2)O`
no of faradays =06 current efficiency =0.5
so actual no of faradays =1.2

Calculate the quantity of electricity required to deposit 0.09 g of Aluminium during the following electrode reaction. Al^(3+) + 3e^- rarr Al .

In a classroom, the teacher has explained the quantitative aspects of electrolysis by stating the Faraday's laws of electrolysis. Calculate the quantity of electricity required to deposit 0.09 g of aluminium during the following electrode reaction: Al^3 + 3e^(-) to Al ( Al=27u)

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

The same quantity of electricity that liberates 4.316 g of silver from AgNO_(3) solution was passed through a solution of gold salt. If the atomic weight of gold be 197 and its valency in the above-mentioned salt be 3, calculate the weight of gold deposited at the cathode and the quantity of electricity passed.

Power stations are centres that generate and distribute large quantities of electricity. Power transmission is the process of sending electricity to distant places through wires from the power stations What change will occur in power when intensity of current is reduced in the circuit ?

Assertion : 1 Faraday of electricity deposits 1 g equivalent of Ag,Cu or Al. Reason : 1 mole of electrons are required to reduce 1 mole of Ag^(+) or 1/2 mole of Cu^(2+) or 1/3 mole of Al^(3+) ions.
