Define chemical equivalent & electro chemical equivalent |
|
Answer» Chemical equivalent is the weight in grams of a substance which displaces or combines with one gram of hydrogen. Chemical equivalent can be found by dividing the formula weight by its valence. While the electrochemical equivalent of a substance is a simple ratio of its chemical equivalent weight to a faraday. ECE = E/F E is Chemical equivalent weight, F is Faraday number. In other words, electrochemical equivalent or Eq of a chemical element is the mass of that element in grams which is transported by 1 coulomb of electricity. Eq is measured with a voltameter. |
