How many grams of zinc, Zn (s) are electroplated out of a solution containing Zn2+ (aq) if the solution is electrolyzed for 1 hour 22 minutes and 26 seconds at current of 1.22 amps?
In an experiment similar to this one, a polished strip of Cu (s) was found to weigh 17.452 g. This strip was electrolyzed for exactly 25 minutes at an average current of 0.987 amps. The weight of the copper strip after electrolysis was 17.996 g. From these data, calculate the value of the Faraday constant.
