An experiment you are performing in your lab requires you to generate hydrogen gas through an electrolytic hydrolysis set up. The current experiment you wish to perform requires that you supply 7.29 moles of H2 gas per hour from your set up. What is the minimum amperage current your electrolysis apparatus will need? 2 H2O + 2 e- → H2 + 2 OH- Eo = -0.83 V O2 + 4 H+ + 2 e- → 2 H2O Eo = 1.23 V
