प्रश्न
A steady current of 2 amperes was passed through two electrolytic cells X and Y connected in series containing electrolytes FeSO4and ZnSO4 until 2.8g of Fe deposited at the cathode of cell X. How long did the current flow? Calculate the mass of Zn deposited at the cathode of cell Y.
(Molar mass: Fe=56g mol-1,Zn=65.3g mol-1,1F=96500C mol-1)

उत्तर
I=2 A
W1= 2.8 g
Fe2+(aq)+2e-→Fe(s)
96500×2 C of charge is required to deposit=56 g of Fe
9650 C of charge is required to deposit=2.8 g of Fe
∵ Q `=1"t" "or" "t" 9650/2=4825"s"`
Using Faraday's second law of electrolysis,
`("W"_1("Weight of Fe deposited"))/("W"_2("Weight of Zn deposited")`
`=("E"_1("Equivalent weight of Fe"))/("E"_2("Equivalent weight of Fe")`
`2.8/"W"_2 =(56/5)/((65.3)/2)=56/65.3`
Or W2 = 3.265 g

The following questions are case-based questions. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow:
| Rahul set up an experiment to find the resistance of aqueous KCl solution for different concentrations at 298 K using a conductivity cell connected to a Wheatstone bridge. He fed the Wheatstone bridge with a.c. power in the audio frequency range 550 to 5000 cycles per second. Once the resistance was calculated from the null point, he also calculated the conductivity K and molar conductivity ∧m and recorded his readings in tabular form. |
