In Faraday's law of Electrolysis, what does "Z" represents in the formula m =Zit?
|
Equivalent weight Electrochemical equivalent Faraday's constant None of these |
Electrochemical equivalent |
Faraday's first law of electrolysis states that the mass of substance deposited or liberated at any electrode is directly proportional to the charge passed. m α q m = Zq m = Zit where Z is electrochemical equivalent ; Z = \(\frac{\text{Atomic weight}}{nF}\) |
