V. Jawaban Pertanyaan
1. Measure the resistance between the probes in the uncontaminated water using
the measuring technique evolved in Assignment 6. Balance is indicated by a null
in the meter deflection, a true zero will not be obtained as explained at the end of
Assignment 4. Record your reading in a table such as in fig 7.3. Remove one
teaspoon of water from your test solution and add one teaspoon of the salt
solution. Measure the new resistance value, and record it in the table.
Repeat the procedure above for amounts of salt water added of 2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and
9 teaspoonsfull. For each spoonful added, remove one from the test solution to
keep the amount of solution to keep the amount of solution constant.
To calculate the concentration of salt solution in the water for the purpose of this
experiment we will define it as the ratio of salt solution added to the total amount
of liquid in the test solution.
Measure the total amount of liquid in the test solution in teaspoonsfull. Record
this figure.
Jawaban : Terdapat pada data percobaan tabel 1

2. Calculate the concentration for each step from:

Concentration = no. of teaspoons added x 100 total no. of teaspoons 1
Record these results in your table.
Jawaban : Terdapat pada data percobaan tabel 1
3. Calculate the reciprocals of the resistances and record these in the conductance
column.
Jawaban : Terdapat pada data percobaan tabel 1

4. Does the resistance measured vary with salt concentration?

Jawaban : Iya, tentu

5. Between what values does it vary?

Jawaban : Antara 0 – 100 %

6. Plot graphs of resistance and conductance against concentration. Use the same
piece of graph paper with axes as in fig 7.4.
Jawaban : Sudah terdapat pada data percobaan

7. What is the relationship between the conductance and the liquid concentration?
Jawaban : Semakin tinggi konsentrasi, maka nilai konduktansi semakin tinggi

8. Therefore, what is the relationship between the resistance and the concentration?
Jawaban : Semakin tinggi konsentrasi, maka semakin kecil nilai resistansi

9. As the resistivity is directly proportional to the resistance, what is the relationship

between the resistivity and the concentration?
It can be seen from this experiment what it is possible to use the principle of
variation of resistivity in a practical transducer.
Jawaban : Nilai konsentrasi berbanding terbalik dengan nilai resistansi

10. What other effect was mentioned in the introduction to this Assignment which
changes the resistivity of metals?
Jawaban : Temperature, purity, surface condition, voltage applied, mechanical
stress

11. Could this be put to use for a practical transducer?

Jawaban : Iya, dapat digunakan
VI. Analisa

 Percobaan ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui nilai perubahan resistansi yang

disebabkan oleh perubahan konsentrasi. Nilai R1 dan R2 pada Jembatan
Wheatstone berfungsi sebagai pembanding untuk nilai R dekade dan Rx/(sensor
elektrode).
 Sensor elektrode digunakan untuk membaca perubahan konsentrasi pada gelas
ukur, lalu diubah menjadi nilai resistansi. Pada percobaan ini, nilai resistansi
berbanding terbalik dengan nilai konsentrasi. Sedangkan nilai konsentrasi
berbanding lurus dengan nilai konduktansi.

VII. Kesimpulan
Pada percobaan ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa, semakin tinggi nilai konsentrasi
larutan elektrode, maka nilai konduktansi akan semakin tinggi. Namun nilai
konsentrasi tersebut berbanding terbalik dengan nilai resistansi. Sehingga semakin
tinggi nilai konsentrasi, maka semakin kecil nilai resistansinya.
