Electricity is passed through an acidic solution of $\mathrm{Cu}^{2+}$ till all the $\mathrm{Cu}^{2+}$ was exhausted, leading to the deposition of 300 mg of Cu metal. However, a current of 600 mA was continued to pass through the same solution for another 28 minutes by keeping the total volume of the solution fixed at 200 mL . The total volume of oxygen evolved at STP during the entire process is $\_\_\_\_$ mL . (Nearest integer)
[Given:
$$ \begin{aligned} & \mathrm{Cu}^{2+}(\mathrm{aq})+2 \mathrm{e}^{-} \rightarrow \mathrm{Cu}(\mathrm{~s}) \mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{red}}^{\mathrm{o}}=+0.34 \mathrm{~V} \\ & \mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{~g})+4 \mathrm{H}^{+}+4 \mathrm{e}^{-} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} \mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{red}}^{\mathrm{o}}=+1.23 \mathrm{~V} \end{aligned} $$
Molar mass of $\mathrm{Cu}=63.54 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}$
Molar mass of $\mathrm{O}_2=32 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}$
Faraday Constant $=96500 \mathrm{C} \mathrm{mol}^{-1}$
Molar volume at $\mathrm{STP}=22.4 \mathrm{~L}$ ]
