Determine what mass of hg is produced


If a watch draws 1.0 X 10-5 amperes continuously for 365 days, determine what mass of Hg(l) is produced when one kind of battery used in the watches contains mercury (II) oxide. As current is drawn, the mercury oxide is reduced to mercury.

   HgO(s) + H2O(l) +2e-    -----> Hg(l) + 2OH- (aq)
