    \[9.65C\]of electric current is passed through fused alhydrous \[MgC{{l}_{2}}\]. The magnesium metal thus obtained is completely converted into a Grignard reagent. The number of moles of Grignard reagent obtained is

    A)  \[5\times {{10}^{-4}}\]        

    B)  \[1\times {{10}^{-4}}\]

    C)  \[5\times {{10}^{-5}}\]        

    D)  \[1\times {{10}^{-5}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    96500 Coulombs of electric current deposits = 12 g of magnesium. 9.65 Coulombs of electric current deposits \[=\frac{9.65\times 12}{96500}\] \[=1.2\times {{10}^{-3}}g\] of magnesium \[\therefore \]The number of moles of Grignard reagent obtained is \[=\frac{1.2\times {{10}^{-3}}}{24}=0.05\times {{10}^{-3}}=5\times {{10}^{-5}}\]
