Electrolysis is carried out on a solution of silver nitrate


Question- Electrolysis is carried out on a solution of silver nitrate for 2.00 h. The platinum cathode, which has a mass of 25.0782 g, weighs 25.2794 g after the electrolysis. The platinum anode weighs the same before and after the electrolysis.

Part a) Draw diagram of electrolytic cell. include charges and half-reactions occuring at each electrode, and show the direction electrons are flowing.

Part b) What must have been the magnitude of the current used in this electrolysis?

Part c) What minimum voltage must have been used in this electrolysis? Assume standard conditions.

Part d) What volume of gas forms at the anode if it is measured at 25 degrees celsius and 755mmHg?
