Mass of copper : 0.165 g
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
5.0 A over 100 seconds
Required
Mass of copper
Solution
Faraday's law:
<em>The mass of the substance formed at each electrode is proportional to the electric current flowing in the electrolysis</em>
<em />
<em />
e = Ar / valence = eqivalent weight
i = current
t = time
W = weight
CuSO₄ ----> Cu²⁺ + SO₄²⁻
Cu ----> Cu²⁺ + 2e
e = Ar/2
= 63,5/2 = 31,75

40.0 g ( 1 mole ) --------------- 6.02x10²³ molecules
? ? --------------------------- 2.90x10²² molecules
mass = 2.90x10²² * 40.0 / 6.02x10²³
mass = 1.16x10²⁴ / 6.02x10²³
mass = 1.9269 g
hope this helps!
