Answer #1

Here Charge passes, Q = It = 10*10*60

= 6000 C

1 atom require charge to Deposited = 2*1.6*10^-19

Therefore

No. of Atoms Deposited = (6000)/(2*1.6*10^-19)

= 1.875*10^22 atoms

Therefore

No. of Moles Deposited = (1.875*10^22)/(6.023*10^23)

= 0.03113 moles

1 mole of Copper has mass = 63.5 g

Therefore

Mass of Copper Deposited = 63.5*0.03113

= 1.98 g

So E option is Correct.

    The concept of thermionic emission is the basis of modern X-ray tubes, which are the workhorse of a medical X-ray image. In this process a filament (a piece of metal in a vacuum) is heated by the application of electrical current. The heat (energy) is transferred to the 'free' electrons of the metal which allow some electrons to escape from the surface. After a short period of operation the filament has lost enough electrons to give it an overall charge...
