Statement $$1$$ : A solution of $$Ni(NO3)2$$ is electrolysed between platinum electrodes using current of $$5$$ A for $$20$$ minute. The weight of Ni deposited is $$1.825$$ g.Statement $$2$$ : The mass of substance deposited during the electrolysis of an electrolyte is inversely proportional to the quantity of electricity passed through the electrolyte.

Electricity used  $$=$$ $$5$$ x $$20$$ x $$60$$ $$=.6000$$ $$CNi(NO3)2+2H++2e-2F$$→  $$Ni58.7$$ $$g+2HNO3Charge$$ required to deposit $$1$$ mole     Ni $$=$$ $$2$$ F $$=$$ $$2$$ x $$96500$$ $$=$$ $$1.93$$ x $$105$$ $$C1.93$$ x $$105$$ C of charge produce Ni $$=$$ $$58.7$$ $$g6000$$ C charge will produce $$Ni=58.7$$×$$6000$$ $$C1.93$$×$$105=1.825$$ gAssertion is true but reason is false as mass of substance deposited is directly proportional to the quantity of electricity passed.
