पर्याय

• 96,500 coulombs

• 1 coulomb

• 60 coulombs

• 965 coulombs

Answer 1

The electrochemical equivalent is the amount of substance which gets deposited from its solution on passing electrical charge equal to 1 coulomb.

Explanation:

Electrochemical equivalent (ECE) is defined as the mass of a substance deposited or liberated by the passage of 1 coulomb of charge during electrolysis.

It is related to Faraday’s first law:

Mass = ECE × Charge

∴ So, ECE is the amount deposited by 1 coulomb of electricity.
