| The '''copper coulometer''' is a one application for the [[copper-copper(II) sulfate electrode]]. Such a [[coulometry|coulometer]] consists of two identical copper electrodes immersed in slightly acidic [[buffer solution|pH-buffered]] solution of [[copper(II) sulfate]]. Passing of [[current (electricity)|current]] through the element leads to the anodic [[solvation|dissolution]] of the metal on [[anode]] and simultaneous [[deposition (chemistry)|deposition]] of [[copper]] ions on the [[cathode]]. These reactions have 100% efficiency over a wide range of current density.

| ==Calculation==
| |
| The amount of [[electric charge]] (quantity of electricity) passed through the cell can easily be determined by measuring the change in mass of either electrode and calculating:
| |
| :<math>Q = \frac{2\Delta m F}{63.546}</math>, | |
| where:
| |
| *Q is the quantity of electricity (coulombs)
| |
| *<math>\Delta m</math> is the mass transported (gm)
| |
| *the factor 2 is due to the transport of [[divalent]] ions
| |
| *F is the [[Faraday constant]] (96485.3383 coulombs per mole)
| |
| *63.546 is the [[atomic weight]] of copper (as grams per mole)
| |
| | |
| Although this apparatus is interesting from a theoretical and historical point of view, present-day electronic measurement of time and electrical current provide in their multiplication the amount of passed [[coulomb]]s much easier, with greater precision, and in a shorter period of time than is possible by weighing the electrodes.
