Fellow CS'ers, Of all the responses I received directly (1), there was one that stood out from all the rest. It indicated the total surface area of both electrodes is used to calculate the current density. There was no mention of the reasoning behind the conclusion, so I am still looking for more of the bits and pieces of the answer.
It seems to me,though,since the reason we care about low current density is the apparent association with smaller silver particles being released from the anode, we don't care what the current density is at the cathode. That is to say, does the current density at the cathode effect the particle size as much as the density at the anode seems to? If it does not, then it makes sense to me to figure the current density on less than 100% of the *anode* wetted surface area and perhaps in the 50% to 70% zone. What be the thoughts of others?
