- Applies2.4Models and Applications
Faraday's-law electrolysis problems (‘100,000 A through a melt for 1.00 h, 85% yield — what mass of metal forms?’) are rate × time = amount word problems, structurally identical to the work-rate and mixture problems algebra §2.4 trains — charge Q = It stands in for distance = rate × time, and stoichiometry then converts charge to moles of metal.
