Question

One Faraday of current was passed through the electrolytic cell placed in series containing solution of Ag+,Ni++ and Cr+++ respectively. The amounts of Ag(at. wt. = 108), Ni(at. wt. = 59) and Cr(at. wt. = 52) deposited will be:

Solution

Reactions involved to deposit Ag,Ni and Cr on the electrodes :
Ag++eAg
Ni+++2eNi
Cr++++3eCr
1F,2F and 3F of charge will be required to deposit 108 gm of Ag,58.7 gm of Ni and 52 gm of Cr respectively.
Therefore if one Faraday (1F) was passed, The amount of Ag deposited will be 108 gm.
The amount of Ni deposited will be 58.72gm i.e, 29.35 gm
The amount of Cr deposited will be 523 gm i.e. 17.33 gm.
