Electrolysis of an aqueous Cu²⁺ solution deposits 0.635 g of Cu metal onto the cathode. Assuming 100 % current efficiency, what total charge (in coulombs) passed through the cell? (Atomic mass of Cu = 63.55 g mol⁻¹) a) 9.65×104 C9.65 \times 10^{4}\ \text{C} b) 3.86×103 C3.86 \times 10^{3}\ \text{C} c) 1.93×103 C1.93 \times 10^{3}\ \text{C} d) 9.65×102 C9.65 \times 10^{2}\ \text{C}
