Solution
Correct Answer:
Equivalent weights
- Statement: When the same quantity of electricity is passed through different electrolytes connected in series, the masses of the substances produced at the electrodes are proportional to their chemical equivalent weights (E).
- Equivalent Weight: E=Valence factor (n)Molar Mass.
- Ratio: m2m1=E2E1.
- Link to Faraday constant: Passing 1 Faraday (96485 C) of charge always deposits 1 equivalent weight of any substance.
