Q.
The amount of chlorine produced per-second through electrolysis in a plate which consumes 100 KW power at 200 V is (Given, electrochemical equivalent of chlorine $= 0.367 \times 10^{- 3}gC^{- 1})$
A) 18.35 g
B) 1.835 g
C) 183.5 g
D) 0.1835 g
Explanation
(d) $I = \frac{P}{V} = \frac{10^{5}}{200} = 500$ A
and $W = zlt = 0.367 \times 10^{- 3} \times 500 \times 1 = 0.1835$ g
