Research Question How does changing the concentration of Zn2+(aq) ions (0.2‚ 0.4‚ 0.6‚ 0.8‚ 1.0) (moldm-3) affect the voltage (V) of the voltaic cell consisting of Zinc and Copper half cells? Aim To see the relationship between increasing the concentration of Zinc ions and the voltage that is obtained from voltaic cell. The concentration of zinc ions can be directly manipulated by changing the concentration of a zinc sulphate aqueous solution‚ and the voltage will be measured using an electronic
