I am doing an experiment on electrolysis with copper sulphate and this is what I am planning to do. AIM: My aim of this experiment is to find out if the number of coulombs affects the amount of copper produced. HYPOTHESIS: I think that the copper will be deposited at the negative cathode as the copper ions have a positive charge, so it gets attracted by the negative cathode. The sulphate, as it has a negative ion, it will be attracted by the positive anode, but as it is not a halogen, oxygen will be given off (this is one of the many rules we have learnt about electrolysis). METHOD: I am going to set up the apparatus (as shown in the diagram on page ). I will sand the copper electrodes first, and then dip them into the copper sulphate. We will use 250ml of copper sulphate solution at 1 mole concentration. I will use...
