    How many coulombs of electricity are required for the oxidation of one mol of water to dioxygen?

    A)  \[1.93\times {{10}^{4}}C\]

    B)  \[19.3\times {{10}^{5}}C\]

    C)  \[9.65\times {{10}^{4}}C\]     

    D)  \[1.93\times {{10}^{5}}C\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    :  \[{{H}_{2}}O\xrightarrow{{}}2{{H}^{+}}+\frac{1}{2}{{O}_{2}}+\underset{2F}{\mathop{2{{e}^{-}}}}\,\] Hence coulombs of electricity required for the oxidation of one mole of water to dioxygen \[=2\times 96500=193000\text{ }C=1.93\times {{10}^{5}}C\]
