Chemistry Coursework GCSE 2004-09-14 Electroplating of Copper Using Copper Electrodes Jason Carboo 11B Aim: The aim of this investigation is to find how the variation in current will affect the mass changes of the copper electrodes in a copper sulphate solution. Introduction In this study it was stated that an investigation should take place to research the electroplating of copper using copper electrodes. In a simplistic way of putting this, is that it is using electrolysis. In order for this to be introduced properly a fairly high level of understanding of electrolysis must be met. In order for this to occur a brief explanation of the subject shall be given. Electrolysis is used often to extract aluminium from its ore and to purify copper. In the case of purifying copper, electroplating is used to remove the impurities that it carries. These impurities need to be removed because it can interfere with the conductivity of...
