A Note on Conduction in Aqueous Electrolytes

Seiger HN

Hittorf suggested the transience as fraction of current carried by each type of ion. In this note it appears that there is but one species that carries all the current through the electrolyte even when a membrane is used to separate the anode and cathode compartments. This carrier is produced at one electrode and consumed at the other. Such a finding explains why there is a disagreement between different methods to determine transference (transport) numbers.
