Experiment to Investigate the Resistance Of Brine Soaked Paper This experiment aims to investigate the resistance of brine soaked paper when an electrical current is passed through it. Planning: Previous experiments have taught me that the electrical resistance will rely on several key variables. These include the length of paper, its thickness but most importantly the number of sodium and chlorine ions carrying the charge. Knowing this, I have decided to investigate the concentration of brine in this experiment. To provide an accurate prediction, I must research into the scientific details in this experiment and recall information from previous investigations. This will give me a greater understanding of the experiment's implications and likely results. Ionic compounds do not have a molecular structure, but form a three-dimensional array of ions called a crystal lattice. In a crystal of sodium chloride, the ions are arranged so that each Na+ ion is surrounded...
