Problem

50 mL of 0.1 M CuSO4\text{CuSO}_4 solution is electrolysed using Pt electrodes with a current of 0.965 ampere for a period of 1 minute. Assuming that volume of solution does not change during electrolysis, calculate [Cu2+][\text{Cu}^{2+}] , [H+][\text{H}^+] and [SO42−][\text{SO}_4^{2-}] after electrolysis. What will be the concentration of each species if current is passed using Cu electrodes?
