Question

Faraday's laws of electrolysis are related to

• A. the atomic number of positive ion.
• B. the equivalent weight of electrolyte.
• C. the atomic number of negative ion.
• D. the velocity of positive ion.

Answer 1

The correct option is B the equivalent weight of electrolyte.

Faraday"s laws of electrolysis

$\Rightarrow$ The amount of substance is deposited , $m=zIt$

where $z=$electrochemical equivalent of substance,

$I=$ current

$t=$ time.
Thus, $m\propto z$
