A small part with a surface area of 2.62 cm2 is plated with a gold coating that is 5.00 10–4 mm thick. The density of gold is 19.32 g cm–3. (a) What mass of gold is in this coating? (b) If a barrel plating run has 5,000 of these parts in a single barrel, how long would the run take if the current was 15.0 A? (Gold is effectively plated from Au+(aq).)
The gold plating of a ceramic figurine requires a total of 4.19 g of solid gold. If the current being used is 11.0 amperes, how many minutes will it take to plate the gold figurine? You may assume that there is a sufficient concentration of gold cation to complete the process.
