So despite different acids having different equivalent weights, there will be no role played by their individual equivalent weights? Secondly: What could be a possible explanation that citric acid evolves more hydrogen in this scenario than hydrochloric acid?

I'm defining rate of electrolysis as the amount of hydrogen evolved at the cathode. I am measuring this as a mass defect in the electrolytic apparatus. Since Hydrogen and Oxygen are evolved in all reactions except those of Hydrochloric acid and sodium chloride, I have adjusted for the amount of...

Thank you very much Borek. As for equivalent weight of the acid: will it play a definitive role in determining how much of the electrolyte is evolved at the electrodes? Keeping in mind that most of my reactions evolved Hydrogen and Oxygen whereas some (such as HCl and NaCl) evolved Hydrogen and...

Electrolysis of water. I used a couple of acid solutions - citric, sulphuric, acetic, hydrochloric at constant concentration (0.1M). Shouldn't pH be directly related to the to solution conductivity? and if the same amount of charge is supplied to a given solution, shouldn't the amount of...

Hi, I have been performing an experiment to determine whether there is any correlation between pH and the rate of electrolysis. I have performed it using monobasic, dibasic and tribasic acids of constant concentration. However, I can't seem to find any correlation. Is there something I should...
