Detailed Solution

Electrode reaction:

C6H5NO2+6H++6e-C6H5NH2+2H2O

 Coulombs passed =5×3.2×3600=57600

(1)  Moles of e-=5760096,500=0.6

(2)  Weight of aniline expected =57,600×936×96,500=9.25 gms 

 Current efficiency =5.69.25×100=60.5

(3) Weight of aniline expected for 100% efficiency = 9.25 gms

(4) Actual number of coulombs used for forming aniline

=57,600×60.5100=34848

 Actual number of e- involved in the reaction 

=34848×6×102396,500=2.2×1023.
