In the electrolysis of a fused salt, the mass of substance deposited on an electrode will not depend — Electrochemistry Chemistry Question

💡 Solution & Explanation

According to Faraday's First Law of Electrolysis, the mass of a substance deposited is given by m = Z * I * t, where Z is the electrochemical equivalent, I is current, and t is time. The macroscopic temperature of the electrolytic bath does not appear in this expression and does not dictate the mass deposited (assuming 100% current efficiency). Therefore, correct answer is A.
