The tutorial says nothing about coulombs/current/concentration, thats the biggest problem, but can be remedied with some basic experimentation at our level..
What I meant about the SS is that if silver coins cost alot of money, then I'd only get one for the positive side because the metal ions go from positive to negative.. only electrons travel the other direction, and it doesn't matter what they come from.. Again I think alot of purity short-cuts could be taken as long as Ag+ concentration is high enough..
Personally though for simplicity sake, I'd just go with silver nitrate, but electrolysis can be as effective, and alot safer than working with HNO3 if you can't just buy the nitrate conveniently....
