Current: A jeweler needs to electroplate gold, having an atomic mass of 196.97 g/mol, onto a bracelet. He knows that the charge carriers in the ionic solution are singly-ionized gold ions, Au+, and has calculated that he must deposit 0.20 g of gold to reach the necessary thickness. How much current does he need to plate the bracelet in 3.0 hours? (e = 1.60 × 10-19 C, NA = 6.02 × 1023 atoms/mol)

A. 9.1 mA B. 540 mA C. 33 A D. 1800 mA
