← ScienceWhich consequence results when silver chloride electrolytic cell is contaminated?
A)Increased short circuit current
B)Metallic silver film delamination
C)Elevated anode passivation risk
D)Decreased faradaic efficiency✓
💡 Explanation
Contamination introduces parasitic reactions which lower faradaic efficiency because charge transfer reactions decrease, resulting in less silver deposition. Ion association via ionic bonds also becomes less efficient, therefore, the cell performs poorly rather than experiencing physical failures or passivation.
