The most convenient method to protect the bottom of the ship made of iron is 

1. coating it with red lead oxide

2. white tin plating 

3. connecting it with Mg block

4. connecting it with Pb block

When 0.1 mole of MnO^2-₄ is oxidised, the quantity of electricity required to completely oxidise MnO^2-₄ to MnO^-₄ is 

1. 96500 C

2. 2*96500 C 

3. 9650 C

4. 96.50 C

The Zn acts as sacrificial or cathodic protection to prevent rusting of iron because:

1. $E_{OP}^{\circ }$ of Zn < $E_{OP}^{\circ }$ of Fe

2. $E_{OP}^{\circ }$ of Zn > $E_{OP}^{\circ }$ of Fe

3. $E_{OP}^{\circ }$ of Zn = $E_{OP}^{\circ }$ of fe

4. Zn is cheaper than iron

What mass of copper will be deposited by passing 2 faraday of electricity through a solution of Cu(II) salt?

1. 35.6 g

2. 63.5 g

In electrolysis of NaCl when Pt electrode is taken then H₂ is liberated at cathode while with Hg cathode it forms sodium amalgam because :

1. Hg is more inert than Pt

2. More voltage is required to reduce H⁺ at Hg than at Pt

3. Na is dissolved in Hg while it does not dissolve in Pt

4. Concentration of H⁺ ions is larger when Pt electrode is taken.

The same amount of electricity was passed through two cells containing molten Al₂O₃ and molten NaCl. If 1.8 g of Al were liberated in one cell, the amount of Na liberated in the other cell is:

1. 4.6 g

2. 2.3 g

3. 6.4 g

4. 3.2 g
