Solvay Process calculations?? (1 Viewer)

[fluff]

hey people-
i was just wondering coz i came across a few questions, in this elective, do we actually need to be able to do calculations using Faraday's constant and so on, regarding the... Solvay process..? (i think)
has anyone else learnt how to do this in school?

thanks!

faraday constant is the quantity of electricity carried by one mole of electrons. it is 96500 coulombs per mole.
I dont think u need this.. I havent done this
but its in my Conquering Chem textbook but it might be there as an extra.
And BTW its not unique for Solvay.. questions involving this constant can be on any electrolysis situation.
