A current passes through two cells containing respectively-(i) CuSO4 solution between Cu electrode and (ii) AgNO3 solution between Pt electrodes. Calculate the loss or gain in weight of the different electrodes in the time in which 40 cc of oxygen at NTP collects in the second cell. 

First cell 0.228 g Cu deposited at cathode. 0.228 g Cu dissolved out from anode 

Second cell 0.778 g of Ag deposited at cathode. Weight of anode does not change.
