The electrolytic cell represented in Figure \(16.17\) can be used to plate silver onto other metal surfaces. The plating reaction is: \(\mathrm{Ag}^{+}(a q)+\mathrm{e}^{-} \longrightarrow \operatorname{Ag}(s)\). Notice from the reaction that 1 mol \(e^{-}\) plates out 1 mol Ag(s). Use this stoichiometric relationship to determine how much time is required with an electrical current 0.100 amp to plate out 1.0 g Ag. The amp is a unit of electrical current equivalent to 1 C/s. (Hint: Recall that the charge of an electron is \(1.60 \times 10^{-19}\) C.)

An electrolytic cell similar to the one represented in Figure \(16.17\) can be used to plate gold onto other metal surfaces. The plating reaction is: \(\mathrm{Au}^{+}(a q)+\mathrm{e}^{-} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Au}(s)\). Notice from the reaction that 1 mol \(e^{-}\) plates out 1 mol Au(s). Use this stoichiometric relationship to determine how much time is required with an electrical current of 0.200 amp to plate out \(0.400 g Au\). The amp is a unit of electrical current equivalent to 1 C/s. (Hint: Recall that the charge of an electron is \(1.60 \times 10^{-19}\) C.)

Suppose a fuel-cell generator produces electricity for a house. If each \(\mathrm{H_2}\) molecule produces \(2 \mathrm e^-\), how many kilograms of hydrogen are required to generate the electricity needed for a typical house? Assume the home uses about 850 kWh of electricity per month, which corresponds to approximately \(2.65 \times 10^4\) mol of electrons at the voltage of a fuel cell.
