Impure coppercontaining Fe,Au ,Ag as impuritiesis elecrolyticallyrefined A currentof 140 A for 482.25 s decreasedthe massof theanodeby 22.26 g and increased the mass of cathode by 22.011 g percentageof iron in impure copper is (Given molar mass of Fe =55.5 mol^(-1) molar mass of Cu =63.54 g mol^(-1))

Answer»

0.95
0.85
0.97
0.9

Solution :AMOUNT pf impurity
=decreased mass of anode - increased mass of cathode
amountof pure Cu DEPOSITED
`W=Zit =(C )/(96500)xxit`
`=(63.54)/(2xx96500)xx140 xx482.5`=22.239 g
`therefore`amountof impurity (Fe) = 22.239 -22.011 = 0.228 g
Now from FARADAY SECOND law of electrolysis
`("weightof fe deposited")/(0.228) =(27.55)/(31.77)`
`therefore` Weight of Fe `=(27.75 xx0.288)/(22.26) xx100=0.88 =0.09`
