[SOLVED] Electrolysis, factors=>n(product)
2. Relevant equation
Which pair of factors both affect the amount (in mol) of chlorine produced in the electrolysis of aqueous
sodium chloride?
A. current and temperature
B. temperature and chloride ion concentration
C. chloride ion concentration and length of time of electrolysis
D. pressure and length of time of electrolysis
The right answer is C but why? I know that Current and time of electrolysis affects on the amount (as It=nzF). However, I do not why Temperature or pressure do not affect on the amount and why [Cl] does. Please, say your comment on this question.
