Letter 8060

Thing for a rainy day 

+

I have a boy who I think would enjoy an experiment I did at school when I was his age. We took pennies and put a nickel plating on them ( I think it was nickel ) . What is the simplest way for me to show this to him ?. And what and where might I find the required chemicals for this? Simple terms appreciated...

This website has a section that describes different plating experiments. (../faqs/index.html) The section is pretty good, and you should try one of the methods described there.

I want to post a question or inquiry of my own.

 

I want to answer this question publicly (in non-commercial fashion).

 

I am a supporting advertiser and want to reach the inquirer privately.
