  2. Faraday constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_constant

    Its use is much less common than of the coulomb, but is sometimes used in electrochemistry. [4] One faraday of charge is the charge of one mole of elementary charges (or of negative one mole of electrons), that is, 1 faraday = F × 1 mol = 9.648 533 212 331 001 84 × 10 4 C. Conversely, the Faraday constant F equals 1 faraday per mole.

  3. Farad - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farad

    The farad (symbol: F) is the unit of electrical capacitance, the ability of a body to store an electrical charge, in the International System of Units (SI), equivalent to 1 coulomb per volt (C/V). [1] It is named after the English physicist Michael Faraday (1791–1867). In SI base units 1 F = 1 kg −1 ⋅ m −2 ⋅ s 4 ⋅ A 2.

  4. Permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permittivity

    Permittivity as a function of frequency can take on real or complex values. In SI units, permittivity is measured in farads per meter (F/m or A 2 ·s 4 ·kg −1 ·m −3). The displacement field D is measured in units of coulombs per square meter (C/m 2), while the electric field E is measured in volts per meter (V/m).

  5. Capacitance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitance

    The SI unit of capacitance is the farad (symbol: F), named after the English physicist Michael Faraday. [2] A 1 farad capacitor, when charged with 1 coulomb of electrical charge, has a potential difference of 1 volt between its plates. [3] The reciprocal of capacitance is called elastance.

  6. Coulomb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coulomb

    Every farad of capacitance can hold one coulomb per volt across the capacitor. One ampere hour equals 3600 C, hence 1 mA⋅h = 3.6 C. One statcoulomb (statC), the obsolete CGS electrostatic unit of charge (esu), is approximately 3.3356 × 1010 C or about one-third of a nanocoulomb.

  7. Vacuum permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_permittivity

    55.263 494 06. e2 ⋅ eV −1 ⋅ μm −1. Vacuum permittivity, commonly denoted ε0 (pronounced "epsilon nought" or "epsilon zero"), is the value of the absolute dielectric permittivity of classical vacuum. It may also be referred to as the permittivity of free space, the electric constant, or the distributed capacitance of the vacuum.

  8. Faraday efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_efficiency

    Faraday efficiency. In electrochemistry, Faraday efficiency (also called faradaic efficiency, faradaic yield, coulombic efficiency, or current efficiency) describes the efficiency with which charge (electrons) is transferred in a system facilitating an electrochemical reaction. The word "Faraday" in this term has two interrelated aspects: first ...

  9. Faraday's laws of electrolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_laws_of_electrolysis

    For Faraday's first law, M, F, v are constants; thus, the larger the value of Q, the larger m will be. For Faraday's second law, Q, F, v are constants; thus, the larger the value of (equivalent weight), the larger m will be. In the simple case of constant- current electrolysis, Q = It, leading to. and then to. where: t is the total time the ...
