Modern Day Alchemy (Electroplating)
Tuesday, April 12th, 2011 running time 04:30
Come along with me and let's learn about Electroplating.
Eletroplating is basically a process where you cover a surface with a thin layer of metal that has been transferred from another object.
We'll be taking it to a very basic level using vinegar, salt and a battery. You also might want to get a couple coins ready.
To start electroplating we will use half a cup of vinegar and just about a table spoon of salt. Mix it all up and we will have created a conductive solution which is going to let electricity flow freely. Follow along in the video for all the other steps for this nifty trick.
