Question

An electric current is passed through electrolytic cells in series one containing Ag(NO3) (aq.) and other H2SO4 (aq.). What volume of O2 (in litre) measured at 25C and 750 mm Hg pressure would be liberated from H2SO4 ifone mole of Ag+ is deposited from AgNO3 solution
solution. (write the value to the nearest integer)

Solution

The deposition of one mole of Ag corresponds to 1 faraday of charge.
1 faraday of charge will liberate 0.25 moles of oxygen which corresponds to a volume of nRTP=0.25×0.0821×298750760=6.2L.
