A solution of Ni(NO3)2 is electrolysed b | Class 12 Chemistry Chapter Electrochemistry, Electrochemistry NCERT Solutions

Question:

A solution of Ni(NO3)2 is electrolysed between platinum electrodes using a current of 5 amperes for 20 minutes. What mass of Ni is deposited at the cathode?

 

Answer:

Given,

Current = 5A

Time = 20 × 60 = 1200 s

Charge = current × time

= 5 × 1200

= 6000 C

According to the reaction,

Nickel deposited by 2 × 96487 C = 58.71 g

Therefore, nickel deposited by 6000 C = (58.71 X 6000) / (2 X 96487) g

= 1.825 g

Hence, 1.825 g of nickel will be deposited at the cathode.
