Deduction of Faraday's Laws of Electrolysis Suppose a charge Q is passed through an electrolyte during electrolysis and the mass liberated/deposited on the cathode is m. m = ZQ Equation (i) is the fundamental equation of electrolysis and contains Faraday's two laws of electrolysis. (1) It is clear from equation (i) that : m ∝ Q .............Faraday's first law (2) If the same charge is passed (i.e. Q is constant) through different electrolytes during electrolysis, then, m ∝ E .........Faraday 's second law | |
