Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Need to calculate the faraday of electricity consumed during
Concept introduction:
The half-cell reaction at the cathode during the electrolysis of water was given below
Since volume, pressure and temperature of hydrogen was given, the number of moles can be attained from ideal gas equation
From the stoichiometry of the reaction, it was known that two moles of electrons will be needed to produce one mole of hydrogen.
So,
