In an electrolytic cell, a 0.500 M CuSO₄ solution is electrolyzed using a copper anode and an inert cathode. A constant current of 5.00 A is passed for 1.00 h. (a) Calculate the theoretical mass of copper deposited on the cathode. (b) If the actual mass collected is 5.70 g, determine the current efficiency of the process (as a percentage).

Answer Options

A. Theoretical mass = 5.20 g; efficiency = 92 %
Correct Answer B. Theoretical mass = 5.93 g; efficiency = 96 %
C. Theoretical mass = 5.93 g; efficiency = 85 %
D. Theoretical mass = 6.10 g; efficiency = 98 %
Correct Answer
B
Correct Option:
Theoretical mass = 5.93 g; efficiency = 96 %
