Solution

The correct option is D Cannot be determined
We know that faraday's first law states that the Weight deposited is proportional to amount of charge.
W = Z Q
But remember that Q=I×t
W=Z×I×t
But we are not given the information for the amount of time the current was passed to determine the charge flowing through. So, the answer cannot be determined.
