The faraday’s laws of eqns. were experimentally derived that is acc. to the definition
from the Faraday’s first law it is:
The amount of substance deposited on electrode would be directly proportional to the charge andd Eq. Weight.
Hence,
W = Q*M/F
   = MIT/nF
where F is the constant and 1 F = 96485 C/mol.
n is the valence factor.
