a solution of MgSO4 is electrolysed for 20 min with a current of 1
5A what mass of Mg is deposited at cathode?

According to Faraday's I law,

W = ZIt WhereW - Mass of magnesium depositedZ - electrochemical equivalence = atomic massnF     = 242 × 96500I = 1
5 At = 20 minW = 242 × 96500 × 1
5 × 20  = 0 00373 g

a solution of MgSO4 is electrolysed for 20 min. with a current of 1.5A. what mass of Mg is deposited at cathode?
