284. A solution of CuSO₄ is electrolysed for 10 minutes with a current of 1.5 amperes. What is the mass of copper deposited at the cathode? (at mass Cu = 63.5).

The cathode reaction is Cu²⁺ + 2e^– → Cu
I = 1.5 amperes, t = 10 x 60 = 600 s
∴ Q = It = 1.5 x 600 = 900 C
The reaction states that 2 x 96500 C are required to deposit 63.5 g Cu at cathode
$∴$ 900 C will deposit

$\frac{63.5 \times 900}{2 \times 96500} \times 900 = 0.296 g Cu cathode .$
