How many moles of aluminium can be produced by the electrolysis of molten aluminium with a current of six faraday
Answers
Answer:
faraday of electricity is required for the deposition of 9 grams of aluminium.
The atomic mass of Al is 27g/mol. 9g of Al corresponds to 279=0.333 moles.
Al3++3e−→Al
3 moles of electrons are required for the deposition of 27 grams (1 mole) of aluminium.
1 mole of electrons is required for the deposition of 9 grams of aluminium.
1 mole of electrons = 1 faraday of electricity.
Hence, 1 faraday of electricity is required for the deposition of 9 grams of aluminium. please mark it as brainliest answer and follow me
Given:
The amount of electricity = 6 Faraday
To Find:
The no of moles of Aluminium deposited on electrolysis.
Calculation:
- The electrolysis of Aluminium is given as:
Al³⁺ (aq) + 3 e⁻ → Al (s)
- Here, the amount of electricity = 3 Faraday
⇒ The amount of aluminium produced by 3 Faraday of electricity = 1 mole
⇒ The amount of aluminium produced by 6 Faraday of electricity = 2 moles
