    A current of 10.0 A is passed through 1.0 L of M HCl solution for 965 s. pH of the solution at the end of the experiment is

    A)  0                                            

    B)  0.20

    C)  0.8                                        

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     Given, \[i=10\,A,\,\,t=965\,\,s\] \[\therefore \]  \[Q=i\,.\,\,t=9650\,\,C\] \[\underset{1\,\,mol}{\mathop{HCl}}\,\underset{1\,\,mol}{\mathop{{{H}^{+}}}}\,+\underset{1\,\,\,mol}{\mathop{C{{l}^{-}}}}\,\] Moles of \[HCl=1.0\times 1.0=1\,mol\] \[\because \,\,\,96500\,C\] charge deposits \[{{H}^{+}}=1\,mol\] \[\therefore \,\,9650\,\,C\] charge will deposite \[{{H}^{+}}=\frac{1\times 9650}{96500}\]                                 \[=0.1\,\,mol\]                 \[[{{H}^{+}}]=0.1\,\,mol/L\]                 \[pH=-\log \,\,[{{H}^{+}}]=-\log \,\,(0.1)=1\]
