Aim: My aim is to find out whether or not changing the depth of the electrolyte affects the current. If so, is there a connection Method: I will set the experiment up as shown in the diagram. I will increase the depth of the electrolyte by 25ml each time. I will repeat the experiment 3 times to make sure I can spot any anomalous results. This way my results will be more accurate. Scientific Prediction: I predict that as I increase the depth of the electrolyte the current will be increased. By increasing the depth of the electrolyte it increases the surface area or the electrodes. By increasing the surface area the rate of reaction has increased, as there is a greater chance of a collision between the electrons and the electrodes. If I double the depth of the electrolyte, which is doubling the surface area, the current will double. Key Factors: Factors...
