The reduction half-reaction is Cu2+(aq) + 2 e- --> Cu(s)1.00X10^-2 g Cu / 63.546 g/mol = 1.57 mol Cu X 2 mol e- / molCu = 3.15 mol electrons3.15 mol e- X 96485 C/mole- = 3.04X10^5 C Coulombs = ampere X seconds3.04X10^5 C = 4 amp X secondsseconds = 7.59X10^4 secondsTime = 7.59X10^4 s / 60 = 1265 minutes/60 = 21.1 hours...
