(A) 0.5

(B) 1.0

(C) 2.0

(D) 3.0

2. If the cathode is a Hg electrode, the maximum weight (g) of amalgam formed from this solution is

(A) 200

3. The total charge (coulombs required for complete electrolysis is

(A) 24125

(B) 48250

(C) 96500

(D) 19300

4. Consider a titration of potassium dichromate solution with acidified Mohr's salt solution using diphenylamine as indicator. The number of moles of Mohr's salt required per mole of dichromate is

(A) 3

(B) 4

(C) 5
