The current produced in 9.50 h is 26.37 A
To find the number of moles use this formula
Number of moles = [tex]\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}[/tex]
Number of Moles = [tex]\frac{215}{22.98}= 9.352 mol Na[/tex]
Now,
[tex]Current = \frac{Charge}{Time}[/tex]
Assuming 215 g of metal forms:
Thus,
Charge = [tex]Moles- e^{-} * F[/tex]
Charge = 9.02 × 10⁵ C
Convert 9.5 hours into seconds.
9.5 × 60 × 60 = 34200 Sec
Current = [tex]\frac{Charge}{Time}[/tex]
Current = [tex]\frac{9.02 \times 10^{5} }{34200}[/tex]
= 26.37 A
Thus from the above conclusion we can say that 26.37 A will produce this amount in 9.50 h.
