n=m/mm
n=2.98/58.7
=0.05
Then
0.05m deposited 0.10faraday of electricity
0.05m----------0.10f
0.20m---------- X
X=0.10Ć0.20/0.05
=0.4f

n=m/M
m=0.2Ć58.7=11.74g
96500x --------- 11.74g
96500Ć0.1 -------- 2.98g
x=0.39~ 0.4F

First, we can calculate the amount of nickel deposited by 0.10 Faraday of electricity:
m = 2.98 g
n = m/M = 2.98 g / 58.7 g/mol = 0.0507 mol
1F = 96,500 C/mol
Now, we can use the ratio of Faraday to moles to calculate the amount of electricity needed to deposit 0.20 moles of nickel:
0.10 F deposits 0.0507 mol Ni
x F deposits 0.20 mol Ni
x = (0.20 mol Ni)(0.10 F / 0.0507 mol Ni) = 0.393 F
Therefore, 0.393 Faraday of electricity are required to deposit 0.20 mole of nickel.
