Question

Four faradays of electricity were passed through AgNO3 (l), CdSO4(l), AlCl3(l), & PbCl4(l) kept in four vessels using inert electrodes. The ratio of moles of Ag, Cd, Al,& Pb deposited will be

A. 12 : 4 : 6 : 3

B.12 : 6 : 4 : 3

Open in App
Solution

Ans. B) 12 : 6 : 4 : 3 is correct

Ag(aq) + e- -----> Ag(s)
1 mol = 1F 1 mol
3F 3 mol

Cd2+(aq) + 2e- -----> Cd(s)
2 mol = 2F 1 mol
3F 3/2 mol

Al3+(aq) + 3e- -----> Al(s)
3 mol = 3F 1 mol

Pb4+(aq) + 4e- -----> Pb(s)
4 mol = 4F 1 mol
3F 3/4 mol

therefore ratio = 3 : 3/2 : 1 : 3/4 = 12 : 6: 4 : 3
