Faraday's second law of electrolysis is related to the:
Faraday's second law of electrolysis is related to the:
- A. molecular mass of the electrolyte
- B. Equivalent weight of the cation /anion
- C. Atomic weight of the electrolyte
- D. Atomic number of the cation/anion
Step-by-step solution
Faraday's second law states that when the same amount of electricity passes through different electrolytes, the masses of the substances liberated are proportional to their equivalent weights. Equivalent weight is defined as the atomic weight divided by the valency (number of electrons gained or lost) for an element. Hence, it is related to the equivalent weight of the cation or anion involved.
