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 a substance deposited, dissolved or liberated at an electrode is directly proportional to the quantity of electricity passing through the electrolytic solution during electrolysis.
193000C electricity is required to deposite one mole of zinc.
