CBSE Class 8 Science Worksheet 9

This document contains questions about the chemical effects of electric current. It asks about conductors and insulators, using distilled water as an insulator and how to make it conductive. It also asks about electrodes, chemical effects when current passes through solutions, electroplating process and uses, disadvantages of electroplating, and an experiment to demonstrate copper electroplating. Several reasoning questions are included about uses of chromium electroplating, tin electroplating on iron cans, and why bridges are not electroplated.
