Because the cord is wrapped in rubber or plastic and they are not good conductors
The molar mass of CuCl2 is 134.452 g/mol. Each element's molar mass can be found in its designated box on the periodic table.
Answer: 281 hours
Explanation:-
1 electron carry charge=
1 mole of electrons contain= electrons
Thus 1 mole of electrons carry charge=
of electricity deposits 1 mole or 63.5 g of copper
0.0635 kg of copper is deposited by 193000 Coloumb
11.5 kg of copper is deposited by= Coloumb
where Q= quantity of electricity in coloumbs = 34952756 C
I = current in amperes = 34.5 A
t= time in seconds = ?
Thus it will take 281 hours to plate 11.5 kg of copper onto the cathode if the current passed through the cell is held constant at 34.5 A.
