Question: 1 . 8 Continuous sheet copper is made by electrodeposition from a solution containing C u S O 4 onto a rotating drum of lead.

1.8 Continuous sheet copper is made by electrodeposition from a solution containing CuSO4 onto a rotating drum of lead. For the conditions given below, what should be the rotation speed of the drum (revolution per hour)?
Cathode current density =1750[(A)*m-2]
Current efficiency =95%
Desired "thickness" (mass per area)=1.22[(kg)*m-2]
Angle of cathode immersion =165
