Solution

The correct option is C F=Ne
Answer is C.
The Faraday constant, denoted by the symbol F and named after Michael Faraday, is the magnitude of electric charge per mole of electrons.
The constant F has a simple relation to two other physical constants:
F = Ne
where, N is the Avogadro constant (the ratio of the number of particles N to the amount of substance n - a unit mole), and e is the elementary charge or the magnitude of the charge of an electron. This relation is true because the amount of charge of a mole of electrons is equal to the amount of charge in one electron multiplied by the number of electrons in a mole.
