Electrolysis Of Aqueous Sodium Chloride
the above is a video i did in sec 3, so yes i look very young. since Electrolysis is taught recently, i've decided to share it.
and since sodium chloride is the cheapest chemical u could ever get and yet interesting in that chlorine can come out, i've decided to use it as the electrolyte. so i just dipped the anode into the sodium chloride (aq) below the test tube and let the chlorine (aq) thats produced to go up the test tube, as u can tell from the colour. (very very pale yellowish green)
i got the power from the mains (AFTER letting it pass thru a transformer...and turning it into dc) cos its so convenient. and my electrode was a piece of graphite i got from splitting up a pencil hehe.
smells like bleach...yeah...quite fun. hehe! btw all the clear 'water' in bottles around my table aren't water lolx!! xD
ENJOY!!! =)
