According to Faraday's first law, the amount of substance deposited at electrode when an electric current is passed through electrolyte depends upon: This question has multiple correct options

1. amount of current passed
2. dissociation of electrolyte
3. time till which current is passed
4. nature of electrode materia

Correct answer: amount of current passed

Solution

Faraday’s first law states that the mass of substance deposited at an electrode is directly proportional to the total electric charge passed through the electrolyte. Since charge equals current multiplied by time, the amount deposited depends on the amount of current passed (and also on how long it flows).
