Science

Which risk increases disproportionately when electrolyte solution temperature drops within an electric double-layer capacitor?

A)Increased mechanical stress on electrodes
B)Decreased ion mobility and conductivity
C)Enhanced rate of chemical degradation
D)Increased electrostatic force on ions

💡 Explanation

Decreased temperature reduces ion kinetic energy, thus reducing the effective Diffusion Coefficient during ionic transport within the double-layer, leading to decreased ion mobility and conductivity; therefore impedance increases, diminishing EDLC performance, rather than other thermal or mechanical effects.
