Question

For the electrolytic production of NaClO4 from NaClO3 according to the equation 

NaClO3+H2ONaClO4+H2 the number of Faradays of electricity required to produce 0.5 mole of NaClO4 is

Moderate
Solution

Change in oxidation state = 7 - 5 = 2

To produce 1 mole of NaClO4 = 2 F required

To produce 0.5 mole of NaClO4 = 0.5 x 2 = 1 F
