1. For this experiment, the independent variable is the use of seawater or distilled water. The dependent variable is the amount of current flowing in the circuit as indicated by the bulb lighting up, and the brightness of the bulb. This is measured by using the ammeter to measure the current and observing the light bulb. The constants (control variables) are the battery voltage, light bulb wattage and the amount of electrolyte solution used. 2. Label the beakers as A and B. Fill beaker A with 300ml of distilled water and beaker B with 300ml of salt water. 3. ..... |
