Answer:

I = 104.54 A

Explanation:

Suppose 650 mmol of electrons must be transported from one side of an electro chemical cell to another in 10.0 minutes Then, we have to calculate the size of electric current that must flow.

Then we know that

Current I = Charge(q) / time {t}

Charge = mols of e- × charge of electron

= (0.650 mol of e- ) × (96500 C/mol of e- ) = 62725 C

now, time in seconds t = 10 min = 10 min × 60 s / min = 600 s

therefore, I = C/t = (62725)/600

I = 104.54 C/s

Also,  1 C/s = 1 Amp

Hence, I = 104.54 A
