The electrochemical equivalent of a metal is 0.126 x 10^-6 kgC^-1. The mass of the metal that a current of 5A will deposit from a suitable bath in 1 hour is

0.0378 x 10 ^-3kg

0.227 x 10 ^-3kg

0.378 x 10 ^-3kg

0.595 x 10 ^-3kg

2.268 x 10 ^-3kg

Correct answer is E

m = Itz

= 5 x 3600 x 0.126 x 10^-6

= 2.268 x 10^-3kg
