1 F = charge on 1 mole e-
charge required for 1 geq = 1F
hence 4F charge required.

Hence 4 Faradays would be required to reduce 4g equivalent of cu2+ to Cu metal.

The number of faradays required to reduce 4 g equivalent of Cu^{2+} to Cu metal will be 4

Explanation:

According to mole concept:

1 mole of an atom contains 6.022\times 10^{23} number of particles.

We know that:

Charge on 1 electron = 1.6\times 10^{-19}C

Charge on 1 mole of electrons = 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=96500C=1F      (96500C=1Faraday)

Q=I\times t

where Q= quantity of electricity in coloumbs

I = current in amperes

t= time in seconds

Cu^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Cu

2 g equivalent of Cu^{2+} requires 2 Faraday of electricity

4 g equivalent of Cu^{2+} requires =\frac{2}{2}\times 4geq=4 Faraday of electricity  

(1 Faraday = 96500 Coloumb)
