The number of electrons delivered at the cathode, during electrolysis by a current of 1 ampere in 60 seconds is (charge on electron =1.60×10-19 C)
  1. 6×1023
  2. 6×1020
  3. 3.75×1020
  4. 7.48×1023

Solution

Q=I×t
=1A×60s
=60 C
∴ Number of electrons =601.602×10-19
                                           =3.75×1020
