Problem

A galvanic plating bath containing Ag+Ag^{+} is electrolyzed with a steady current of 150 mA150\,\text{mA} for exactly 2.00 h2.00\,\text{h}. Assuming F=9.65×104 C mol−1F = 9.65\times10^{4}\,\text{C mol}^{-1}, what mass of silver is deposited on the cathode? (Molar mass Ag=107.9 g mol−1\text{Ag} = 107.9\,\text{g mol}^{-1}) (a) 2.42 g2.42\,\text{g} (b) 1.21 g1.21\,\text{g} (c) 0.605 g0.605\,\text{g} (d) 0.121 g0.121\,\text{g}
