Potassium chlorate is prepared by electrolysis of $KCl$ in basic solution as shown by the following equation:
$6 OH^{-} + Cl^{-} \rightarrow ClO_{3}^{-} + 3 H_{2}O + 6 e^{-}$
$A$ current of $x \ A$ has to be passed for $10 \ h$ to produce $10.0 \ g$ of potassium chlorate. The value of $x$ is $.......$ (Nearest integer).
(Molar mass of $KClO_{3} = 122.6 \ g \ mol^{-1}, F = 96500 \ C \ mol^{-1}$)

Salts of $A, B$ and $C$ were electrolysed under identical conditions using the same quantity of electricity. It was found that when $2.1 \ g$ of $A$ was deposited,the weights of $B$ and $C$ deposited were $2.7 \ g$ and $9.6 \ g$. If the atomic mass of $A, B$ and $C$ are $7, 27$ and $64$ respectively,then the valencies of $A, B$ and $C$ respectively are:
