Question
A current of 3 A was passed for 1 hour through an electrolyte solution of AxBy in water. If 2.977 g of A (atomic weight 106.4) was deposited at cathode and B was a monovalent ion, the formula of electrolyte was
Options
A.AB2
B.AB
C.AB3
D.AB4
Solution
(Ay+ + ye- → A)
∴ y = 4 ⇒ Electrolyte is AB4.
