Ok, I‘m in the process of building a voltaic cell for chem lab, and I need to optimize the voltage, and I can‘t use muriatic acid, or sulfuric acid, or anything ‘dangerous‘ as an electrolyte. Out of these solutions which would be the best to use:NaCl aqueous solution (salt water)Lemon JuiceWhite VinegarApple Cider VinegarEpsom Salt water solutionWhite Vinegar + Salt solutionor White Vinegar + Epsom salt solutionAlso, I‘m using copper pipe, and aluminum sheets, can I still use copper wire in the battery?For a salt bridge what‘s the best porous material I can use? I was thinking of getting bottles, pouring an electrolyte in them, setting up the pipe and aluminum sheet in the same bottle, and connecting them with a wire, will that produce electricity, or do I NEED, two separate beakers with solutions and a salt bridge? Thanks for any help!
Oh I did this experiment last year haha Well for the electrolyte, try sticking to strong acids because they dissociate well. So cross out the salt water solutions. For the salt bridge, you can make a bootleg thing. What some groups did in my class was that they had a straw and then they stuffed it with a paper towel that was soaked in salt water. And stick to using two beakers. I think it makes things easier.
Yes it has a high ph-value but there are other values to consider such as the amount of chemical balance seeing as not all urine is the same.
