What is Transport Number?

The fraction of the total current carried by an ion is known as transport number, transference number or Hittorf number may be denoted by sets symbols like t+ and t– or tc and ta or nc and na.
Transport number can be determined by Hittorf's method, moving boundary method, emf method and from ionic mobility.
