Admin, ur answer is damn f**king wrong. Yes because 2 moles of Al^3+ requires 6 Faradays of electricity While 2.5 moles of Cu^2+ requires 5 faradays of electricity. Pls the correct answer is D. Add me up if u need any explanation guys.

@myschool
please the right answer should be A
2cl- ➡️ Cl2 +2e-

which means
1mol of cl needs 2F (2×96500)
4 mols will need 4× 2F = 8F


unlike
Al
2 mols will need 2× 3F = 6F

2.5 mols of Cu will need 2.5 × 2F= 5F
3 mols of Na will need 3 × 1F = 3F.
