QuestionElectrochemistry / moving boundary method
In the determination of the transport number of Li⁺ ion by the moving boundary method, a 0·10 M solution of LiCl was taken in a cell having uniform area of cross section of 1·0 cm². At the end of the experiment the boundary moved by 2·0 cm and 0·09 g of silver was deposited on the cathode of a silver coulometer. The transference number of Li⁺ ion is (Given : Faraday = 96,500 C mol⁻¹; Atomic mass of Ag = 108)
- (a) 0·24
- (b) 0·40
- (c) 0·60
- (d) 0·76
