Electric current is passed through two c...

Electric current is passed through two cells A and B in series. Cell A contains aqueous solution of `Ag_(2) SO_(4)` and platinum electrodes. Cell B contains aqueous solution of `CuSO_(4)` and copper electrodes. The current is passed till 1.6g of oxygen is liberated at the anode in cell A. Calculate the quantities of copper and silver deposited at the cathode of the two cells.
[ Atomic mass, O = 16, Cu 63.5, Ag = 108]

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
Ag = 21.6g, Cu = 6.35g
