During the electrolysis of copper (II) tetraoxosulphate (VI) solution, an ammeter shows a steady reading of 1A for 30minutes while 6.6 x \(10^{-4}\)kg of copper is liberated. Calculate the error in the ammeter The electrochemical equivalent of copper is 3.30 x \(10^{-7}kgC{-1}\)

A.
0.001A
-
B.
0.011A
-
C.
0.111A
-
D.
1A

E.
1.1A
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation
m=zIt, \(I=\frac{m}{zt}= \frac{6.6\times10^{-4}}{3.3 \times10^{-7}\times 1800}=1.1111\\ \)error=1.1111-1.0=0.111A.
