Answer:

108g of Ag

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us write a balanced equation to determine the number of faraday required to deposit metallic silver. This is shown below:

Ag^+ + e- —> Ag

From the above equation,

1 faraday is required to deposit metallic silver.

Molar Mass of Ag = 108g/mol

1 faraday = 96500C

Therefore, 96500C deposit 108g of Ag
