    How many atoms of calcium will be deposited from a solution of  \[CaC{{l}_{2}}\] by a current of 5 mA flowing for 60s?

    A)  \[4.68\times {{10}^{18}}\]          

    B)  \[4.68\times {{10}^{15}}\]

    C)  \[4.68\times {{10}^{12}}\]          

    D)  \[4.68\times {{10}^{9}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    Key Idea: First calculate total current passed (Q) by equating it to as follows Q = it then number of electrons and then number of atoms of Ca deposited. Given, \[i=25mA=0.0025A\] \[t=60\text{ }s\] Q = it \[=0.0025\times 60=1.5C\] Number of electrons in 1.5 C                 \[=\frac{Q\times Avogadro\,number}{96500}\]                 \[=\frac{1.5\times 6.023\times {{10}^{23}}}{96500}\]                 \[=9.36\times {{10}^{18}}\]                 \[Ca\xrightarrow{{}}C{{a}^{2+}}+2{{e}^{-}}\] \[\because \] \[2{{e}^{-}}\] are required to deposit 1 Ca atom. \[\therefore \]  No. of Ca atoms deposited \[=\frac{no.\,\,of\,electrons}{2}\]                                 \[=\frac{9.36\times {{10}^{18}}}{2}\]                                 \[=4.68\times {{10}^{18}}\]
