Experimental Report: Oxidation and Reduction Factors Affecting Electrochemical Cells Research Question: How do the changeable electrodes of different reactivity affect the energy in Volts measured by a Voltmeter while the Solution and the Salt Bridge stay constant for every single trial by the same amount in each beaker? Background Theory: The conductance of an electrolyte depends upon the number of ions present in the solution. Therefore‚ the greater the number of ions in the solution

Aim: To investigate the factors affecting the stretching of springs and rubber bands Scientific Knowledge: Before doing the experiment I came to the conclusion that this experiment relates to Hooke’s Law which states that extension is proportional to the load‚ meaning that if you stretch something with a steadily increasing force‚ then the length will increase steadily too. By looking at various sources I have also found out that if a mass m on a spring is displaced from the equilibrium position
