Class 12 Chemistry - Chapter Electrochemistry NCERT Solutions | If a current of 0.5 ampere flows through

Welcome to the NCERT Solutions for Class 12th Chemistry - Chapter Electrochemistry. This page offers a step-by-step solution to the specific question from Exercise 1, Question 10: if a current of 0 5 ampere flows through a metalli....
Question 10

If a current of 0.5 ampere flows through a metallic wire for 2 hours, then how many electrons would flow through the wire?

Answer

I = 0.5 A

t = 2 hours = 2 × 60 × 60 s = 7200 s

Thus, Q = It

= 0.5 A × 7200 s

= 3600 C

We know that 96487C = 6.023 X 1023 number of electrons.

Then,

Hence, 2.25 X 1022number of electrons will flow through the wire.
