What is electrolysis?
Think about the use of electricity to cause a reaction.
What does an electrolyte do?
It’s necessary for electric current to flow.
What is the primary function of an electrolytic cell?
Consider what happens during electrolysis.
True or False: Faraday's first law states that mass deposition is independent of electric charge.
Think about the direct relationship between mass and charge.
A current of 5A is applied to an electrolytic cell for 10 minutes. Calculate the mass of copper deposited at the cathode if the equivalent mass of copper is 31.8 g/equiv.
Remember the relationships given by Faraday's laws.
Assuming you have a mixture of electrolytes containing copper (Cu) and silver (Ag) ions, how would you predict which metal would deposit first when the current is passed through?
Consider the sequence of ion deposition based on equivalent mass.
