current electrolyte relationship

[deleted-331519]

I'm currently working on a project . I mⓂinterested in finding out how intensity of current will change when 2 conducting solution (ie, ionic compound & acid) are mixed & used as electrolyte ... sir plz tell me if this will work .... & IMPORTANTLY WHAT INNOVATION CAN BE DONE ?

Amogbude - I'm not sure I understand exactly what you are doing. You mention mixing an ionic solution with an acid and trying to understand what current generation capability is when this mixture is used as an electrolyte. There is a lot missing from the description, so here are some questions. What materials are you using as electrodes? These will be dissimilar materials on the electro-activity scale to generate electric current. It's possible that adding an ionic material to the acid you will start to conduct current within the solution, dramatically reducing current produced at the electrodes. Think of it as a 'short circuit' in your solution. Perhaps I'm missing some of your points, so we can probably assist more with additional information.

no sir , i was trying to explain different thing .
there's a circuit with a battery , ammeter , electrodes ( dipped in electrolyte ). ok , now the current will be generated by battery ... it will flow through circuit & electrolyte to complete it . now if that electrolyte is a mixture of ionic compd & acid what change in strenght of current occure that I want to find out

Hi Amogbude,

These forums are targeted toward K-12 students, parents, and teachers who are working on science projects. It sounds like your question might be about something different. What is the hypothesis you are trying to test? If your question is not related to a K-12 science fair project, then a different set of online forums would be a better place to ask your questions.
