At the Nangal fertiliser plant in Punjab, hydrogen is produced by the electrolysis of water. This hydrogen is used for the production of ammonia and nitric acid (by oxidation of ammonia). If the average production of ammonium nitrate is 5000 kg/day, the daily consumption of electricity per day is x × 105

Give thevalue of x to the nearest integer value.

In an electrolysis experiment, the current was passed for 5 h through two cells connected in series. The first cell contains a solution of gold and the second contains CuSO4 solution. 9.85 g of gold was deposited in the first cell. If the oxidation number of gold is +3, find the amount of Cu deposited on the cathode of the second cell. Also, calculate the magnitude of the current in amperes.

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.
