Two electrolytic cells containing 
and 
respectively are connected in series and a current is passed through them until 1 mg of copper is deposited in the first cell. The amount of silver deposited in the second cell during this time is approximately
[Atomic weights of copper and silver are respectively 63.57 and 107.88]
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
(By faraday law for same current and time)
Where E 1 and E 2 are the chemical equivalents and m 1 and m 2 are the masses of copper and silver respectively.
. 
and 
∴ ∴
