Introduction:
One of
the most important applications of electrolytic cells is the process
of electroplating, in which a thin layer of a metal is deposited on an electrically conducting
surface.
Electroplating has many
commercial applications including decorative and protective
coatings.
The purpose of this project is to get familiar with electroplating
process and learn how it works, however you can expand your study
and also determine the amount of electricity used to plate a certain
mass of copper. You may also calculate the atomic mass of copper.
