A copper plating cell operates with a current of 2.00 A for 30 minutes. The current efficiency for copper deposition is 85 %. The molar mass of copper is 63.55 g mol⁻¹ and copper is deposited as \(\mathrm{Cu^{2+} + 2e^- \rightarrow Cu(s)}\). (a) Calculate the mass of copper deposited on the cathode. (b) If the plating solution initially contains 250 mL of 0.10 M \(\mathrm{Cu^{2+}}\), determine the new \(\mathrm{Cu^{2+}}\) concentration after plating, assuming the decrease in volume is negligible.

Answer Options

Correct Answer A. 1.01 g Cu deposited; final [Cu²⁺] = 0.0365 M
B. 0.85 g Cu deposited; final [Cu²⁺] = 0.040 M
C. 1.20 g Cu deposited; final [Cu²⁺] = 0.030 M
D. 0.95 g Cu deposited; final [Cu²⁺] = 0.045 M
Correct Answer
A
Correct Option:
1.01 g Cu deposited; final [Cu²⁺] = 0.0365 M
