current density

https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.C01452
The current density jB of a species B in a given point of the solution is obtained by multiplying the flux density of that species at the given point by the
Faraday constant
F and by the
charge number
zB of the species: jB=zB F NB where jB is a vector which indicates the direction in which the charges transported by the species B flow and which gives the number of these charges going through a plane oriented perpendicular to the vector, divided by time and by area, and NB is the flux density of a minor
constituent
of the solution with respect to a fixed frame of reference.
