Expert Solution

W    = MCt/ZF

Cu^2+ (aq) + 2e^- -------------> Cu(s)

       Z = 2

      F    = 96500c

     C    = 30A

     t     = 4h   = 4*60*60   = 14400sec

atomic masss of Cu (M) = 63.5g/mole

W   = Mct/ZF

         = 63.5*30*14400/2*96500    = 142g

part-B

W    = 46.1g

C    = 5A

Au^+ (aq) + e^- -----------> Au(s)

Z = 1

F   = 96500c

M   = 196.96g/mole

W    = Mct/ZF

t        = WZF/Mc

          = 46.1*1*96500/196.96*5   = 4517.3sec

                                                      = 4517.3/60   = 75.3minutes >>>>>answer
