Current density of solution a/m2 is given below

Explanation:

Current density is the measure of current generated per unit surface area of electrode.

Eg: In microbial fuel cell/fuel cells, if you are using electrode with size of 5cm x 2cm and current produced is 200mA, then current density will be,

CD= Current/(projected area of electrode)

area of rectangle= LxB= 5cm x 2cm =10cm2

CD= 200mA/10cm2

CD= 20mA/cm2

Your Current will be 200mA.

Current density will be 20mA/cm2.
