What Is This Tool?

This converter translates electric charge measurements from the ESU of charge, a unit used in the Gaussian CGS system, to the faraday based on carbon 12, a historical electrochemical unit linked to moles of electrons. It facilitates converting theoretical and experimental charge values into units useful for chemical and electrochemical analysis.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value of electric charge in ESU of charge.
  • Select ESU of charge as the input unit and faraday (based on carbon 12) as the output unit.
  • Initiate the conversion and review the result displayed in faradays.
  • Use the converted value for stoichiometric or electrochemical calculations.

Key Features

  • Converts ESU of charge (statcoulomb) units to faraday based on carbon 12.
  • Supports translation between CGS electrostatic units and electrochemical charge quantities.
  • Provides clear example conversions for practical reference.
  • User-friendly and browser-based for quick access and use.
  • Suitable for applications in physics, plasma studies, astrophysics, and electrochemistry.

Examples

  • 1 ESU of charge equals approximately 3.4571490588084 × 10⁻¹⁵ faradays (based on carbon 12).
  • 1,000,000 ESU of charge converts to about 3.4571490588084 × 10⁻⁹ faradays (based on carbon 12).

Common Use Cases

  • Expressing and converting charge values in theoretical electrodynamics using the Gaussian unit system.
  • Calculating the chemical amount of substance transferred during electrolysis or electroplating.
  • Relating electrical charge to moles of electrons for quantitative electrochemical analysis.
  • Interpreting older scientific literature that reports charge in CGS/ESU units.
  • Determining equivalents in redox titrations involving electrochemical reactions.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Always double-check unit selections before converting to avoid errors.
  • Use scientific notation when handling very small converted values for clarity.
  • Apply this conversion mostly for stoichiometric calculations or when historical units are required.
  • Remember that ESU is not an SI unit and faraday based on carbon 12 is largely historical.
  • Verify conversion results with reliable references when conducting precise research.

Limitations

  • ESU of charge is not part of the SI system and may complicate practical electrochemical calculations.
  • Faraday based on carbon 12 is a historical unit and less commonly used compared to modern SI units.
  • Converted values can be extremely small, needing careful handling of scientific notation to avoid rounding mistakes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is ESU of charge?
ESU of charge, also known as statcoulomb, is the unit of electric charge used in the electrostatic Gaussian CGS system, defined by the force between two equal charges one centimeter apart.

Why convert from ESU of charge to faraday based on carbon 12?
Converting from ESU to faraday allows translation from a physics-based charge unit to a chemical unit connected to moles of electrons, aiding in electrochemical and stoichiometric calculations.

Is faraday (based on carbon 12) commonly used today?
