Electrolysis design internal assessment Introduction to experiment Electrolysis is a method using a direct electric current to drive a non-spontaneous chemical reaction. It involves the stage in the separation of elements from naturally occurring sources such as ores. In this experiment‚ methods to alter rate of electrolysis will be attempted to be discovered. Although many contributing factors could affect the rate of electrolysis which could include internal energy within the electrolyte or

A summative assessment is used to assess learning and understanding of a broad concept or curriculum. This type of assessment summarizes a student’s understanding of a group of concepts at a particular time and almost always comes at the conclusion of a unit‚ period of time‚ or an entire school course. Summative assessment is designed to measure student understanding of required learning objectives that have been taught. The results of these assessments determine a student’s overall understanding

Design and Implementation of a Single Phase Inverter Circuit 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Introduction Inverters are used to produce constant or variable frequency AC output from a DC source. These inverters can be used for AC applicatio n like driving an induction motor. Such type of inverters in present world are used largely in renewable energy systems to convert DC to AC‚ example is a PV system where there is a requirement of such type of inverters which can power AC systems such as an induction

Section (a) I will be analysing an electric toothbrush. The design aspects I will be focusing on are; Function Performance Market Aesthetics Ergonomics Economics Function Primary functions of a toothbrush are- to wash teeth clean better/easier than an ordinary toothbrush. Secondary functions are- Timer so it’s easy to estimate the right time of washing teeth. Battery indication so you know when to charge it before it dies‚ Changeable ends so more people can use the same toothbrush
