The weight of silver (At. wt. = 108) displaced by a quantity of electricity which displaces 5600 mL of O at STP will be
To solve this problem, we need to use Faraday's laws of electrolysis and the concept of molar volume at STP.Given:• Atomic weight of silver (Ag) • Volume of displaced at STP mLAt STP, 1 mole of any gas occupies 22400 mL. Therefore, the moles of displaced are:Moles of The reaction for the formation of is:This shows that 1 mole of is produced by 4 moles of electrons.Therefore, mole of is produced by mole of electrons.According to Faraday's laws, 1 mole of electrons (1 Faraday) will deposit 1 mole of silver.The weight of 1 mole of silver is its atomic weight, which is 108 g.Therefore, the weight of silver displaced is g.Thus, the correct option is 4.
