One faraday of current was passed through the electrolytic cells placed in series containing solution of Ag+, Ni2+ and Cr3+ respectively. The ratio of amounts of Ag, Ni and Cr deposited will be

(atomic weigth of Ag = 108, Ni = 59 and Cr = 52)

  • 108, 29.5, 17.4

  • 17.4, 29.5, 108

  • 1, 2, 3

  • 108, 59, 52


A.

108, 29.5, 17.4

For deposition of Ag, reaction will be,

Ag+ + e- → Ag

Thus, 1F deposits Ag = 1 mol = 108 gm

For deposition of Ni, the reaction will be,

Ni2+ + 2e2 → Ni

Thus, 2F deposits Ni = 1 mol = 59 gm

 1 F deposits Ni = 0.5 mol = 29.5 gm

For deposition of Cr, the reaction is

Cr3+ + 3e- → Cr

Thus, 3F deposits Cr = 1mol

 1F deposits Cr = 0.33 mol = 17.4 g

Zinc is used to protect iron from corrosion because

  • Ered of An < Ered of iron

  • Eoxidation of Zn < Eoxidation of iron

  • Eoxidation of Zn = Eoxidation of iron

  • Zinc is cheaper than iron
