A Battery That Makes Cents- Control Variables

Post by deleted-311085 »

I am not for sure if I have listed all of the control variables for this experiment.

Controlled Variable: electrolyte, types of coins

Hello. Controlled variables are quantities you want to remain constant during your experiment. You can read more about that here.

Think about the materials list for your experiment. What are you changing and what are you keeping constant? Take a shot and write back.

Good luck!
