Faraday Constant Calculator

The Faraday Constant Calculator is a simple yet powerful tool designed to compute the total electric charge carried by one mole of electrons. It helps users convert fundamental constants into a usable value for applications in chemistry, electrochemistry, and physics. The result gives the Faraday constant, which is a vital link between the amount of substance and the electric charge involved in redox reactions and electrolysis processes.

This calculator is part of the Physics and Chemistry Constants Calculators category. It supports researchers, students, and professionals by providing an accurate way to derive the Faraday constant using known values of Avogadro’s number and the elementary charge.

formula of Faraday Constant Calculator

Faraday Constant (F) = N_A × e

Where:

F = Faraday Constant (in coulombs per mole, C/mol)

N_A = Avogadro’s number = 6.02214076 × 10²³ mol⁻¹

e = Elementary charge = 1.602176634 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

So, using the formula:

F = (6.02214076 × 10²³ mol⁻¹) × (1.602176634 × 10⁻¹⁹ C)
F ≈ 96485.332123 C/mol

This means one mole of elementary charges carries approximately 96485 coulombs of charge.

Example of Faraday Constant Calculator

Let’s say you want to verify the Faraday constant using known values.

Step 1: Write down the known values
N_A = 6.02214076 × 10²³ mol⁻¹
e = 1.602176634 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

Step 2: Plug into the formula
F = N_A × e
F = (6.02214076 × 10²³) × (1.602176634 × 10⁻¹⁹)

Step 3: Calculate
F ≈ 96485.332123 C/mol

So, the Faraday constant is about 96485.33 coulombs per mole.
