How will show that Faraday's second law of electrolysis is simply corollary of the first law.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

According to Faraday's first law of electrolysis.
`w = Z xx Q`
If same quantity of electricity is passed through two electrolytes, ie. `Q_(1) = Q_(2) = Q`, then
In case of first electrolyte, `w_(1) = Z_(1) xx Q` and
In case of second electrolyte, `w_(2) = Z_(2) xx Q`
On dividing, `(w_(1))/(w_(2)) = (Z_(1))/(Z_(2)) =(E_(1)//96500)/(E_(2)//96500) =(E_(1))/(E_(2))`
where `E_(1)` and `E_(2)` are their equivalenet masses.
