NEET Chemistry Electrolytic Cells MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about the electrolysis of silver ions is correct?
One mole of electrons is required to reduce one mole of silver ions.
Electrolysis can occur without a constant current source.
The quantity of electricity passed is independent of the electrode reaction stoichiometry.
Coulometers are the primary method used today for measuring charge in electrolysis.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to the provided context, one mole of electrons is indeed required for the reduction of one mole of silver ions, as stated in the reaction Ag^+(aq) + e^- → Ag(s). Other options misrepresent the electrolysis process or current technology.
