WORKABILITY

copper (II) sulphate solution

A1 workable set up showing a beaker with an electrolyte and circuit

A2 A voltmeter included in the circuit

MEASUREMENTS OF VARIABLES

81 vary pH and measure pH and voltage using pH meter and a voltmeter

82 Vary depth (to change area) and measure depth, using a ruler, anci voltage

83 Vary the separation by either spacing or moving the electrodes closer, rneasure the
separation with a ruler and emf.with a voltmeter

B4 Listed apparatus to measure separation and depth, e.g ruler

CONTROL OF VARIABLES

C1 With same separation, same depth, vary pH by adding drops of an acid/alkatine .

CZ With same pH, same separation, vary the area by dipping in or pulling oufthe flar
electrodes in t[e electrolyte

C3 With same area (depth) and pH, vary the separation by moving electrodes apart/closer
