Electrochemical constant

Description

The electrochemical constant f has the SI unit for energy per charge per temperature [J·C^-1·K^-1].

f = k·e^-1, the Boltzmann constant k divided by the elementary charge e.

f = R·F^-1, the gas constant R divided by the Faraday constant F.

Abbreviation: f [J·C^-1·K^-1]
