State Farday's first law of electrolysis...

State Farday's first law of electrolysis. For the electrode reaction `Zn^(+2)+2e^(-)rarrZn_((s))`, what quantity of electricity in coloumbs is required to deposite one mole of zinc. 

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The amount of chemical reaction which occurs at any electrode during electrolysis by a current is proportional to the quantity of electricity passed through the electrolyte.
required electricity `=2 times 96500=1,93,000` coulombs
