250 mL of a waste solution obtained from the
workshop of a goldsmith contains 0.1 M AgNO3
and 0.1 M AuCl. The solution was electrolyzed
at 2V by passing a current of 1A for 15
minutes. The metal/metals electrodeposited will
be
[ = 0.80 V, = 1.69 V ]
(A)
Silver and gold in equal mass proportion
(B)
Silver and gold in proportion to their atomic
weights
(C)
Only gold
(D)
Only silver
Explanation
Correct answer is C
Millimoles of Au+ = 0.1 × 250 = 25
Mole of Au+ = =
Charge passed = I × t = 1 × 15 × 60 = 900 C
moles of e– passed = =
Only gold will be deposited as quantity of
charge passed is less than the amount of Au+
present.

reaction, the time (rounded to the nearest hour)
required to produce 10 g of KClO3 using a
current of 2 A is_________.
(Given : F = 96,500 C mol–1; molar mass of
KCIO3 = 122 g mol–1)
correct answer is 11
# Explanation
For synthesis of 1 mole of ClO3- , 6F of charge

An acidic solution of dichromate is electrolyzed
for 8 minutes using 2A current. As per the
following equation
Cr2O72-

The amount of Cr3+ obtained was 0.104 g. The
efficiency of the process(in%) is
(Take : F = 96000 C, At. mass of chromium = 52)
______.
correct answer is 60
# Explanation
Cr2O72-
+ 14H+ + 6e– 2Cr3+ + 7H2O
I = 2 A, t = 8 min
From 1st law of faraday,

108 g of silver (molar mass 108 g mol–1) is
deposited at cathode from AgNO3(aq) solution
by a certain quantity of electricity. The
volume (in L) of oxygen gas produced at
273 K and 1 bar pressure from water by the
same quantity of electricity is _______.
correct answer is 5.66 To 5.68
# Explanation
Cathode : Ag+(aq) + e- Ag(s)
Moles of Ag deposited = = 1 mole
Anode : 2H2O O2 + 4H+ + 4e-
Here we have to find volume of O2 evolved.
Equivalance of Ag = Equivalance of O2
1 1 = nO2 4
nO2 = mol
Volume of O2 evolved
= 22.4
= 5.6 lit

A solution of Ni(NO3)2 is electrolysed
between
platinum electrodes using 0.1 Faraday
electricity. How many mole of Ni will be
deposited at the cathode?
(A)
0.10
(B)
0.15
(C)
0.20
(D)
0.05
Explanation
Correct answer is D
Cathode reaction :
Ni+2 + 2e- Ni(s)
From 2
mole of electrons 1 mole of Ni is deposited at the cathode.
So from 0.1 F or 0.1 mole of electrons = 0.05
mole of Ni is deposited at the cathode.

(Atomic weight of B = 10.8 u)
(A)
1.6 hours

(D)
3.2 hours
Explanation
Correct answer is D
Required reaction :
B2H6 + 3O2 B2 O3 + 3 H2 O
Here molar mass of B2H6 =10.8 2 + 6 = 27.6 gm
Given weight of B2H6 = 27.66 g
No of moles of B2H6 =
mole.
For combustion of 1 mole B2H6 3 moles O2 required.
This 3 mole of O2 is obtained by electrolysis of H2O.
2H2O() O2 (g) + 4 H+ (aq) + 4
e
From Faradays law of electrolysis,
moles nf =
Here moles of O2 = 3.
Nf of O2 = 4 (in H2 change of O = 2
and in O2 change of 0 = O.
So change in charge = 2 .
for two atoms of O2 change in charge = 2 2 = 4)
