Calculate the volume in cm3 of oxygen evolved as s.t.p. when a current of 5 A is passed through acidified water for 193s
{F = 96500 Cmol-1, Molar volume of a gas at s.t.p. = 22.4 dm3}

  • A 224.000 dm3
  • B 0.056 dm3
  • C 0.224 dm3
  • D 56.000 dm3
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Q = 1 x t \(\implies\) Q = (5 x 193)C
Q = 965C
40H \(\implies\) 2H2O + O2 + 4e
4 X 96500C evolve 22.4 dm3 x 965
4 x 96500 = 0.056 dm3
