Question

How long would it take to electroplate 28.3g of silver at a constant current of 2.0 amps from a solution of silver nitrate?

Answer

$Ag^+ + 1 e- \rightarrow Ag(s)$

$28.3g : Ag : x : \frac{1 mol Ag}{107.87g} : x : \frac{1 mol e-}{1 mol Ag^+ } : x : \frac{96485 C}{1 mol e^-} = 25313 C$

$time = \frac{25313 C}{2 A}: x : \frac{1 min}{60 sec} = 211 min$

Question

How many grams of Cr can be obtained by the electrolysis of a Cr(NO3)3 if 10 amps are passed through the cell for 6 hours?

Answer

$Cr^{3+} + 3 e- \rightarrow Cr(s)$

Question

How much Al would be precipitated if an AlCl3 solution was electrolyzed for 1.00 hours with 5.00 amps?

Answer
