Answer:
5 amperes is 5 coulombs per second, 5C/s
So the total charge in 965 seconds is Q=5C/s×965s=4825C
Then the number of moles of copper plated out (n) is:
n=
zF
Q
where z is the number of electrons in the half-cell reaction and F is the Faraday constant = 96,485/mol
So, n=
(2×96485)
4825
=0.025mol
And this is 63.546×0.025=1.58g
So 1.58grams are plated deposited at the cathode.
