`10800 C` of electricity passed through the electrolyte deposited `2.977g` of metal with atomic mass `106.4 g mol^(-1)`. The charge on the metal cation isA. `+4`B. `+3`C. `+2`D. `+1`

Answer» Correct Answer - a
`M^(n+)+n e^(-) rarr M`
Mole of metal deposited `=(2.977)/(106.4)=0.27mol`
`1 mol `of `M` deposited = `n `Faraday
`=nxx96500C.`
`0.027 mol =nxx965--xx0.027`
`:. Nxx96500xx0.027=10800C`
`:. n=4`
