How many grams of silver could be plated out on a serving tray be electrolysis of a solution containing silver in +1 oxidation state for period of 8.0 hours at a current of 8.46 amperes? What is the area of the tray if the thickness of the silver plating is 0.00254 cm? Density of silver is 10.5g/cm^(3).

Answer»


Solution :Calculate mass of Ag deposited. It comes out to be 271.65 g. VOLUME of Ag deposited `=(271.65)/(10.5)=25.9cm^(3)`
AREA of tray`=(25.9)/(0.00254)=1.02xx10^(4)cm^(2)`.
