← ScienceWhich risk increases with high current density during electrodeposition of silver?
A)Agglomeration creates dendrite formation✓
B)Ionic flux exceeds surface mobility
C)Overpotential encourages metal passivation
D)Hydrogen evolution reduces reduction potential
💡 Explanation
High current density lowers surface ion concentration, causing diffusion-limited kinetics. The process of diffusion-limited aggregation then accelerates dendrite growth because silver ions preferentially deposit on protrusions rather than planar surfaces, therefore increasing agglomeration risk.
