Conduction Through Gases ASSESSMENT

The document contains 10 multiple choice questions about conduction through liquids and gases. It asks about the time required to deposit zinc through electrolysis, why hydrogen and oxygen behave differently at electrodes, types of electrolysis, conductivity of pure water and certain metals or liquids, uses of LEDs and applications of glow discharge and hot cathode emission. It also contains short theory questions about cathode ray oscilloscopes and electron emission from hot and cold cathodes.
