Answer:

CuSO4 cell will have the greatest amount of deposit among all three. The deposit will occur at the cathode

Explanation:

The valence of the elements in this case is as follows -

Cu - 2e-

Sn - 4e-

Cr - 3e-

CuSO4 cell will have the greatest amount of deposit among all three

The atoms of copper metal will deposit at the cathode. At the cathode, the least number of moles of electrons needed .

Hence, more amount of copper  can be extracted out by the electrolyte
