Saline oscillator as a teaching experiment
The saline oscillator consists of two aligned containers that are filled in by a pair of different solutions, exhibiting electrical potential oscillations when released. These oscillations occur due to a difference of mass density presented by the fluids and they cause varying ions flow, leading to...
