    What amount of \[C{{l}_{2}}\]gas liberated at anode, if 1 A current is passed for 30 min from\[NaCl\]solution?

    A)  0.66 mol             

    B)  0.33 mol

    C)  0.66 g                                  

    D)  0.33 g

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                     Key Idea: The problem will be solved by Faraday's law of electrolysis. \[Q=it\] Given,\[i=1\text{ }A,\text{ }t=30\times 60=1800\text{ }s\]. \[\therefore \] \[Q=1\times 1800\] \[=1800C.\] \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  1\,mol \\  71\,g. \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{2C{{l}^{-}}}}\,\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{2\times 96500\,C}{\mathop{C{{l}_{2}}\text{ }+\text{ }2{{e}^{-}}}}\,\]               (at anode) \[\therefore \]the amount of\[C{{l}_{2}}\]gas liberated by passing 1800 C of electric charge \[=\frac{1\times 1800\times 71}{2\times 96500}=0.66g\]
