The Electrolysis Investigation Aim: To find out what aspects (if any) of electrolysis are affected by the depth of immersion of the electrodes. Hypothesis: I predict that the rate of reaction will be depending on the length of the carbon electrode immersed in the electrolyte (Sodium Bromide in our case). I think the more deeper the electrode is immersed the faster the rate of reaction will be and visa versa. I believe in this because of the collision theory; according to the collision theory the more surface area something has the faster the reaction will occur since there is more surface area for the successful collisions to occur (keeping in mind that electrolysis isn't a reaction in that sense). Method: After all the apparatus was collected (See Fig 1.2) a small beaker (80cm?) and a small measuring cylinder(8cm?) for collecting the Hydrogen produced were filled with the electrolyte: Sodium Bromide (NaBr). Then the measuring cylinder...
