Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
(a) A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
(b) A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
(c) A-II, B-III, C-I, D-IV
(d) A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I (NEET 2024)
Ans: (a)
To answer this question, we need to calculate the number of Faraday's required for each of the reactions in List I.
Reaction A: Conversion of H2O to O2
The reaction for electrolysis of water to produce oxygen can be written as:
Each mole of O2 requires the transfer of 4 moles of electrons. Therefore, to produce 1 mole of O2, you need 4 Faraday's of charge. However, since the reaction shown in the table suggests the production of only 1 mole, it would require 2 Faraday's. This is because we are dealing with a half reaction in which only 2 moles of electrons are required for every mole of O2 produced from 1 mole of H2O.
Reaction B: Conversion of MnO4- to Mn2+
The reduction reaction for permanganate to manganese ion is:
This reaction indicates that 5 moles of electrons are involved in the reduction of 1 mole of MnO4- to Mn2+. Therefore, 5 Faraday's are required.
Reaction C: Production of 1.5 moles of Ca from molten CaCl2
The electrolytic production of calcium from its chloride can be illustrated as follows:
Each mole of Ca produced requires 2 Faraday's of electrons considering the transfer of 2 moles of electrons. For 1.5 moles of Ca, the total Faraday's required would be 3 Faraday's, because, 1.5 * 2 = 3F.
Reaction D: Oxidation of FeO to Fe2O3
The reaction can be considered in terms of iron oxidation states:
Each mole of O2 requires 2 Faraday's of charge. If the products include 2 moles of Fe2O3 and 1 mole of O2, thus, only 2 Faraday's will be required for 1 mole of FeO to react (considering FeO as just a part of the full reaction).
Correct Matching:
A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
The mappings are A-II (2F for H2O to O2), B-IV (5F for MnO4- to Mn2+), C-I (3F for 1.5 mol of Ca from CaCl2), and D-III (2F for FeO to Fe2O3).
Therefore, the correct answer is Option A:
A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III.
Q2: Mass in grams of copper deposited by passing 9.6487 A current through a voltmeter containing copper sulphate solution for 100 seconds is (Given : Molar mass of Cu : 63 g mol−1,1 F = 96487C)
(a) 3.15 g
(b) 0.315 g
(c) 31.5 g
(d) 0.0315 g (NEET 2024)
Ans: (b)
The mass of copper deposited when passing an electric current through a copper sulphate solution can be calculated using Faraday's laws of electrolysis. The first law states that the amount of a substance deposited or liberated at an electrode during electrolysis is proportional to the amount of electricity (charge) passed through the electrolyte.
To find the mass of copper deposited, we use the formula:
Where:
m is the mass of the substance deposited (in grams),
M is the molar mass of the substance (in g/mol),
I is the current (in amperes, A),
t is the time electricity is passed through the solution (in seconds),
n is the number of moles of electrons required to deposit or dissolve 1 mole of the substance (valence number, which is 2 for copper in copper sulphate solution as copper ions are Cu2+),F is the Faraday constant, approximately 96487C/mol of electrons.
Given:
Substitute these values into the formula:
Hence, the mass of copper deposited is approximately 0.315 g, making Option B the correct answer.

= +0.287 V
Since E°cell is positive, O2 will be released.

Q1: Consider the change in the oxidation state of Bromine corresponding to different emf values as shown in the diagram below:
Then the species undergoing disproportionation is:- (NEET 2018)
(a) BrO3-
(b) BrO4-
(c) Br2
(d) HBrO
Ans: (d)
Calculate Eocell corresponding to each compound undergoing disproportionation reaction. The reaction for which Eocell comes out + ve is spontaneous.
HBrO → Br2, EoHBrO/Br2 = 1.595 V
HBrO → BrO3–, EoBrO3-/HBrO = 1.595 V
Eocell for the disproportionation of HBrO,
Eocell = EoHBrO/Br2 - EoBrO3-/HBrO
= 1.595 - 1.5
= 0.095 V = + ve
So, Eocell > 0
So, ΔGo < 0 (Spontaneous)

Q4: Zinc can be coated on iron to produce galvanized iron but the reverse is not possible. It is because
(a) zinc is lighter than iron
(b) zinc has lower melting point than iron
(c) zinc has lower negative electrode potential than iron

Ans: (d)
The reduction potential values are

Thus, due to higher negative electro potential value of zinc than iron, iron cannot be coated on zinc.
