Answer

0.16 g Ag

Work Step by Step

t= 9300 s $Q= It=0.015\,A\times9300\,s=139.5\,C$ According to the reaction: $Ag^{+}+e^{-}\rightarrow Ag$ We require 96487 C to deposit 1 mol or 107.87 g of Ag. Therefore, mass of Ag deposited= $\frac{107.87\,g\,mol^{-1}\times139.5\,C}{96487\,C\,mol^{-1}}= 0.16\,g$
