ok where does H+ comes .
in electrolysis of Cr2(so4)3 solution using 2 ampere the mass of cathode increased 8g.how long was electrolysis conducted
here i think Cr shud not be discharged and H+ shud be discharged!!!!!!!!!
am i right????
but if it is so,how mass of cathode will increase
-
UP 0 DOWN 0 0 6

as the reduction potentials are Cr3+=-0.73 and H+=0
i think the one with higher reduction potential is reduced.
so , i think u r right, H+ is reduced at the cathode, but i'm not sure
K.......THANX FOR UR REPLY..........LET'S WAIT FOR SOME MORE REPLIES THEN!!!!!!!
I forgot..
but kuch tha na NCERT main..
that in solution Cr3+ gives Cr + Cr2+..
dunno..
but may be,..
cuz of this...cathode increases..
(I may b wrong)
i think its an example of chrome plating.so chromium ion shud gets deposited at the cathode.
i think CrO3 shud be the main constituent in the chromium sulphate solution other than chromium sulphate.
