Chapter 16, Problem 103E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The number of moles of electrons that is required to electroplate $5.8\text{ g Ag}$ is to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

The number of moles of a metal can be determined by the expression $\text{No of moles =}\frac{\text{Weight}\text{of}\text{metal}}{\text{molecular}\text{weight}}$

With the help of half cell reaction, the number of moles of electrons required by per mole of metal can be determined.
