dear dissimilar i always thought that was a hair removal term ... electrolysis but i guess it does have more application according to wiki Main article: Faraday's laws of electrolysis<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday%27s_laws_of_electrolysis> [edit<http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Electrolysis&action=edit§ion=8> ] First law of electrolysis In 1832, Michael Faraday <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Faraday>reported that the quantity of elements separated by passing an electrical current through a molten or dissolved salt<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt>is proportional to the quantity of electric charge passed through the circuit. This became the basis of the first law of electrolysis: [image: m = k \cdot q] [edit<http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Electrolysis&action=edit§ion=9> ] Second law of electrolysis Faraday also discovered that the mass <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass> of the resulting separated elements is directly proportional to the atomic masses <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_mass> of the elements when an appropriate integral divisor is applied. This provided strong evidence that discrete particles of matter exist as parts of the atoms of elements.
