Calculate the amount of electricity required to deposit 0.9 g of aluminium by electrolysis of a salt containing its ion, if the electrode reaction is

Al 3 + + 3 e - → Al ;    ( atomic mass of Al  =  2 7 ,  1 F = 96500 C  )

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

Al 3 + + 3 e - → Al ​

1 mole Al requires 3 mole e-(3 F charge) to dischage on electrode.

Also, 1 F = 96500 C.

Thus,27 g of Al require = 3 × 9 6 5 0 0  C

0.9 g of Al requires = 3 × 9 6 5 0 0  C 2 7 × 0.9 = 9650 C .

=9.65× 10 3  C
