Electrochemical equivalent

The electrochemical equivalent, sometimes abbreviated Eq or Z, of a chemical element is the mass of that element (in grams) transported by 1 coulomb of electric charge. The electrochemical equivalent of an element is measured with a voltameter.

Definition

The electrochemical equivalent of a substance may be defined as the mass of the substance deposited to one of the electrodes when a current of 1 Ampere is passed for 1 Second, i.e. a quantity of electricity of one Coulomb is passed.

gollark: Look, I could make a new test with those if you wanted?
gollark: That is not, sadly, part of the test.
gollark: it is, in fact, mostly a joke.
gollark: The logic puzzle is actually meaningless since the options are sorted randomly.
gollark: It's only 45 questions, not that long.
