    When a quantity of electricity is passed through \[CuS{{O}_{4}}\]solution, 0.16 g of copper gets deposited. If the same quantity of electricity is passed through acidulated water, then the volume of \[{{H}_{2}}\] liberated at STP will be : [given: atomic weight of \[Cu=64\]]

    A)  \[4.0\,\,c{{m}^{3}}~\]                  

    B)  \[56\,\,c{{m}^{3}}~\]

    C)  \[604\,\,c{{m}^{3}}~\]                 

    D)  \[8.0\,\,c{{m}^{3}}~\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[\frac{Wt.\text{ }of\text{ }Cu\text{ }deposited}{Wt.\text{ }of\text{ }{{H}_{2}}\text{ }produced}=\frac{Eq.\text{ }wt.\text{ }of\text{ }Cu}{Eq.\text{ }wt.\text{ }of\text{ }H}\] \[\frac{0.16}{wt.\,of\text{ }{{H}_{2}}}=\frac{64/2}{1}=\frac{32}{1}\] wt. of \[{{H}_{2}}O=\frac{0.16}{32}=5\times {{10}^{-3}}\,g\] Volume of \[{{H}_{2}}\] liberated at STP                 \[=\frac{22400}{2}\times 5\times {{10}^{-3}}cc\]                 = 56 cc
