Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12
In producing chlorine through electrolysis 100 W power at 125 V is being consumed. How much chlorine per min is liberated? ECE of chlorine is 0.367 × 10⁻⁶ kg/C:
A
17.6 mg
B
34.3 mg
C
24.3 mg
D
39.6 mg
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The amount of chlorine liberated can be calculated using the formula: mass = ECE × current × time. The current is calculated as power/voltage = 100/125 Å. Substituting the values gives the mass of chlorine liberated.
