Electroplating with copper and copper nitrate

I am working on a experiment dealing with electroplating copper using copper nitrate [affil links] as my solution. How do I find out how thick the coating is and how does it relate to Faraday's Law?

Please see our FAQ about Faraday's Law of Electrolysis and then tell us what you think it says, and then we can easily answer your question, Latisha, of how that relates to the thickness of the coating.
