Given,

Current = 5A

Time = 20 × 60 = 1200 s

Charge = current × time

= 5 × 1200

= 6000 C

According to the reaction,

Ni^2++2e^- -----------------> Ni(8)

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.
