Electrolysis
« on: August 18, 2010, 01:27:58 AM »
Please refer to the image attached. Under what circumstances won't the bulb light up? One is if a weak electrolyte is used. What could be the other reasons for the bulb not lighting up?

Thanks,

Ron

Have you come up with any ideas? (the question is linked to the amount of charge that flows through the cell, so you only have to ask yourself: what parameters is $$ i /$$ related to?)

Look at the various components in the diagram. Do you understand what they all are? Do you know what purpose each has and what properties each must have for the flow charge to occur? List them
