Question
an aqueous solution of pdcl2 is electrolyzed for 27.4 seconds during this time 0.1064 g of Pd is deposited on the cathode. Calculate the average current used in the electrolysis.
Answers
The average current used in the electrolysis can be calculated using the following equation:
Average current = (mass of Pd deposited/time) / (charge of Pd ion)
Average current = (0.1064 g/27.4 s) / (2 x 1.602 x 10^-19 C)
Average current = 0.945 A
Average current = (mass of Pd deposited/time) / (charge of Pd ion)
Average current = (0.1064 g/27.4 s) / (2 x 1.602 x 10^-19 C)
Average current = 0.945 A
