Electrolysis Graph
« on: June 17, 2006, 02:14:09 AM »
Apparently, a concentration-current graph for electrolysis should present a dead straight line because of Faraday's Laws of electrolysis.

However for my experiment, the points seems to give a slight curvature.  Why?  What reasons could account for them?

Look for Kohlrausch's law and Debye-Huckel-Onsager theory (or equation).
