    DATE: 11th November, 2024

    TITLE: Movement of ions in electrolysis

    AIM: To investigate which is the coloured ion in a potassium permanganate crystal and a copper (II) sulphate

    crystal.

    MATERIALS/ APPARATUS:

    1. Microscope slide
    2. Filter paper
    3. Small crystal of potassium permanganate
    4. DC source, about 20V
    5. Scissors
    6. Spatula
    7. Concentrated ammonia solution

    METHOD:
    1. Place a strip of filter paper on the microscope slide and fix it in place with a crocodile clip at each end.
    The clips will act as electrodes. Draw a line down the middle of the paper.
    2. Moisten the filter paper with tap water so that the water spreads out as far as the clips, but no further.
    3. Connect the wires to the DC source. Note which wire is connected to the negative terminal and which is
    connected to the positive terminal.
    4. Drop one small crystal of potassium permanganate onto the center of the paper.
    5. Record all observations.
    6. Repeat steps 1- 5 for the copper II sulphate crystal. If the colour is not visible, remove the strip, blot it
    dry and hold over the mouth of a bottle of concentrated ammonia solution.

    DISCUSSION:
    1. What is electrolysis?
    2. How is electrolysis demonstrated in the experiment carried out?
    3. Did the colours of the crystals move towards the positive or the negative electrode? EXPLAIN EACH
    CRYSTAL SEPARATELY.
    4. Deduce which ions migrated to which electrode in each of the crystals.
