The amount of different substances produced, when the same quantity of electricity is passed through different solutions are proportional to their__________________?
Correct answer: D. Equivalent weight
- A. (Molecular weight)2
- B. (Equivalent weight)2
- C. Molecular weight
- D. Equivalent weight
Explanation
Faraday's law states that the mass deposited or liberated by a fixed quantity of electricity is proportional to the substance's equivalent weight, not its molecular weight alone. The equivalent weight accounts for the number of electrons involved.
