Solution

The correct option is A 33 mg
Given
The atomic mass number of zinc is Z=66.
The valency of Zinc is v=2.
The current is I=9.65A.
Time t=10 s.
The current is rate of flow of charge, hence if q is the charge flowing in circuit then
I=qt
q=It=9.65×10=96.5C
Now, the mass of zinc liberated by 96500 charge (i.e. 1F charge) is
Zv=662=33g.
Hence,
the mass of zinc liberated by charge q is
m=33×96.596500=33mg
