Copper sulphate solution (250 mL) was electrolysed using a platinum anode and copper cathode. A constant current of 2 mA was passed for 16 minutes. It was found that after electrolysis the absorbance of the solution was reduced to 50% of its original value. Calculate the concentration of copper sulphate in the solution to begin with.

Answer»

SOLUTION :INITIAL mole of `CuSO_4` per 250 ml
`= 2 xx` mole of `CuSO_4` lost
2 x mol of CU deposited
`7.958 xx 10^(-5) M`
