Step 6Make zinc electrodes

make zinc electrodes
as zinc is not easy solderable, we'll have to use some force here

1. process zinc plates with sanding paper
2. cut pieces approximately the same size as copper ones
3. make small in the top of every piece and bend them
5. prepare the wire in the same way as with copper electrodes
6. clamp the wire with zinc pieces using pliers
7. make the conductivity test
