Answer:
89.35 hour
Explanation:
Recall :
Charge on 1 electron = 1.6 × 10^-19 C
1 mole contains = 6.023 × 10^23
Therefore, the charge on 1 mole of electron will be :
Charge per electron × 1 mole :
(1.6 × 10^-19) * (6.023 * 10^23) = 96500 C = 1 Farad
1 Farad = 96500 C
Using the formula :
Q = Current(I) * time(t)
Q = I*t
t = Q/I
Current, I = 0.3 A
t = 96500 / 0.3
t = 321666.66 second
t = 321666.66 / 3600 = 89.35 hour
