How long will it take for a current of 3 amperes to decompose 36 g of water. (Eq. mass. Of hydrogen is 1 g and that of oxygen 8 g):

A

36 hors apporx

B

18hours approx.

C

9 hours approx

D

4-5 hours approx.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`W=Z I t`
Eq. mass of water `=("Mol.mass")/(2)=(18)/(2)=9`
`Z=("Eq. mass of water")/(96500)=(9)/(96500)`
`36g=(9)/(96500)xx3xxt
`therefore t=128866.7s=36` hours.
