FARADAYS LAW OF ELECTROLYSIS

Faraday’s laws of electrolysis are quantitative relationships based on the electrochemical researches published by Michael Faraday in 1834.[1]

Statements of the laws

Several versions of the laws can be found in textbooks and the scientific literature. The most-common statements resemble the following:

Faraday’s 1st Law of Electrolysis – The mass of a substance altered at an electrode during electrolysis is directly proportional to the quantity of electricity transferred at that electrode. Quantity of electricity refers to electrical charge, typically measured in coulombs, and not to electrical current.
