Dear Student,Amount of copper deposited =Mass of copper depositedMolar mass of copperAmount of copper deposited =Density ×Volume  of copper depositedMolar mass of copperAmount of copper deposited =8
9410×10×1063 = 0
1422 electrons are required to convert Cu2+ to CuThe number of faradays passed or electricity passed = n no
 of electron×F ×Amount of copper depositedThe number of faradays passed or electricity passed =2×96500 × 0
142The number of faradays passed or electricity passed =27406 C
