Materials Safety Goggles Lead electrode Copper Electrode Zinc Electrode Brass Electrode Two “leads” Voltage Meter 250ml beaker Sulfuric Acid, 150ml Test Battery, C-Cell Ruler Paper and Pencil, recording results Steel wool Method 1. Test the voltage and connect leads to the C-cell battery. 2. Disconnect the leads from the battery and connect them to the leads. 3. Place the electrodes at the 50ml mark in beaker of sulfuric acid, 3 cm apart from each other. 4. Hold the electrodes in the acid for 3 seconds. 5. Record voltage reading on the voltage meter. 6. Remove the electrodes and clean oxidization with steel wool. 7. Repeat steps #1-#7 3 times. 8. After 3 tests leave the zinc electrode and remove the other and replace with another electrode.
