Solution

m = cZt

Where, c represents the magnitude of current in amperes.

Explanation:

According to Faraday's first law of electrolysis, the mass (m) of a substance deposited during electrolysis is directly proportional to the current (c) and time (t).

m = cZt

Where Z is the electrochemical equivalent of the substance.
