What does selective discharge of ions depend on?
What does selective discharge of ions depend on?
- Relative position of ions in the electrochemical series, relative concentration of ions, and nature of the electrodes (correct)
- Size and weight of the ions
- Temperature and pressure of the solution
- Color and transparency of the solution
In what scenario does selective discharge of ions occur?
In what scenario does selective discharge of ions occur?
- When two or more ions of the same charge are present in a solution of an electrolyte under identical conditions and are competing for discharge at the same electrode (correct)
- When there is only one type of ion present in the solution
- When the concentration of ions is low
- When ions of opposite charges are present in a solution
