Solution

The correct option is D 12 : 6 : 4 : 3
AgNO3Ag++NO3CdSO4Cd2++(SO4)2AlCl3Al3++3ClPbCl4Pb4++4Cl
It requires 1F of current to deposit 1 mol of Ag.
Similarly 2F of current to deposit 1 mol of Cd.
3F of current to deposit 1 mol of Al.
4F of current to deposit 1 mol of Pb.
When 4 faradays of electricity were passed,
moles of Ag diposited=41=4mol.
moles of Cd diposited=42=2mol.
moles of Al diposited=43mol.
moles of lead diposited=44=1mol.
therefore Ratio of moles of Ag,Cd,Al,Pb will be 4:2:43:1
=12:6:4:3.
