Question 37
Conduction through Liquids and GasesWhich of the following graphs correctly represents the variation of mass of a given material deposited with time for constant current in Faraday's law of electrolysis?
- A.Graph A
- B.Graph B
- C.Graph C
- D.Graph D
Show the answer and explanation
Answer: C (Graph C)
Explanation
m = ZIt, so with constant current the mass is proportional to time: a straight line through the origin, which is graph C.
