    4.5 g of aluminium (at. mass 27 amu) is deposited at cathode from  solution by a certain quantity of electric charge. The volume of hydrogen produced at STP from  ions in solution by the same quantity of electric charge will be:                                [AIPMT (S) 2005]

    A) 22.4 L

    B) 44.8 L

    C) 5.6 L

    D) 11.2 L

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] From second law of Faraday
                \[\frac{{{m}_{Al}}}{{{m}_{H}}}=\frac{{{E}_{Al}}}{{{E}_{H}}}\]
                \[\therefore \frac{4.5}{{{m}_{H}}}=\frac{27/3}{1}\]
                \[or{{m}_{H}}=0.5\,g\]
                \[\because \,2\,g\,{{H}_{2}}\,volume\,at\,STP=22.4\,L\]
                \[\therefore \,\,0.5\,g\,{{H}_{2}}\,volume\,\,at\,STP\]
                \[=\frac{22.4\times 0.5}{2}\,L=5.6\,L\]
