Electrodeposition

Electrodeposition

This lab, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, covers the concept of chemical reactions. Students will learn how "a flow of electrons allows cations in solution to revert to a solid state while plating an object" as well as "the process which allows the ions of the plating solution to be replenished, and how this results in a loss of mass for the solid metal electrode." Teacher Preparation Guides, Student Guides, and Next Generation Science Standards applicable to the lesson are included.
