Electrochemistry - Result Question 93

####41. A current of $1.70 A$ is passed through $300.0 mL$ of $0.160 M$ solution of a $ZnSO _4$ for $230 s$ with a current efficiency of $90 %$. Find out the molarity of $Zn^{2+}$ after the deposition $Zn$. Assume the volume of the solution to remain constant during the electrolysis.

Answer:

Correct Answer: 41. $(0.154 M)$

Solution:

  1. Faraday’s passed $=\frac{1.7 \times 230}{96500}=4.052 \times 10^{-3} F$

Faradays used for reduction of $Zn^{2+}=4.052 \times 10^{-3} \times 0.9$

$$ =3.65 \times 10^{-3} $$

$\Rightarrow$ Meq. of $Zn^{2+}$ reduced $=3.65$

Initial meq. of $Zn^{2+}=300 \times 0.16 \times 2=96$

$\Rightarrow$ Meq. of $Zn^{2+}$ remaining $=96-3.65=92.35$

$\Rightarrow$ Molarity of $Zn^{2+}=\frac{92.35}{2} \times \frac{1}{300}=0.154 M$
