Dear Student,

Ag+(aq) +    e-   →     Ag(s)              1 mol = 1F     1 mol                       3F            3 molCd2+(aq) +    2e-   →  Cd(s)              2 mol = 2F       1 mol                         3F            32 molAl3+(aq) +    3e-   →     Al(s)              3 mol = 3F       1 molPb4+(aq) +    4e-   →  Pb(s)              4 mol = 4F       1 mol                         3F            34 mol  Therefore, ratio = 3:32:1:34= 12:6:4:3

Four faradays of electricity were passwd thru AgNO3, CdSO4.AlCl3 and PbCl4 kept in four vessels using inert electrodes.The ratio of moles of Ag,Cd, Al and Pb deposited will be.
