Setting up electrochemical cells. 0.0 / 5 ? ChemistryElectrolysisGCSEOCR Created by: Sophia BoothCreated on: 17-05-18 06:47 Step 1 Get two electrodes. Clean the surface of the electrode using a small piece of emery paper. 1 of 7 Step 2 Transfer grease back onto strips. Dont touch the surfave of the metals. 2 of 7 Step 3 Place both electrodes into a beaker filled with electrolyte. 3 of 7 Step 4 Connect electrodes to a power supply using crocodile clips and wires. 4 of 7 Why do you set it up with non-inert electrodes? Use the same method but use copper electrodes rather than carbon or platinum. 5 of 7 Half equation at the anode. Cu -> Cu2+ + 2e- 6 of 7 Half equation at the cathode. Cu2+ + 2e- -> Cu 7 of 7
