How many moles of electrons are required for reduction of 2 moles of Zn2+ to Zn?

टिप्पणी लिखिए

उत्तर

The balanced equation for the reduction of Zn2+ to Zn is

\[\ce{Zn^{2+}_{ (aq)} + 2e- -> Zn_{(s)}}\]

The equation shows that 1 mole of Zn2+ is reduced to Zn by 2 moles of electrons.

For reduction of 2 moles of Zn2+, 4 moles of electrons will be required.
