Quotation from: General Science

As a result of numerous experiments, it was found that a definite
current of electricity will deposit a definite amount of silver in a
definite time, and that the amount of silver deposited on an electrode
in one second might be used to measure the current of electricity
which has flowed through the circuit in one second.


A current is said to be one ampere strong if it will deposit silver on
an electrode at the rate of 0.001118 gram per second.
