Charge transport in liquids (Drying oven required!) (with the Cobra3 Basic-Unit)

Product No: P3060211

Principle

A potential difference between two electrodes in a liquid causes the flow of a current in the liquid. This current depends on the potential drop across the liquid and its conductivity. The measurement of the conductivity of electolyte solutions yields knowledge about charge transport in liquids.

Tasks

Measure the change in conductivity caused by diluting a 0.1 molar potassium chloride solution with distilled water.
Measure the conductivity of an aqueous potassium chloride solution at different tempereatures.
Explain the observed effects.

What you can learn about
