With a short circuit, electrons move directly and don't do any electrochemistry.
It's not likely to produce anything but heat.

Why are your electrodes so close together or so near the bottom?

Stir.

hi,

Yesterday I was doing some CS and I forgot about it when I started cooking, so time passed and when I remembered it had passed 2 and a half hours and the silver oxide sludge had build a bridge between the cathode and anode. Does this shortcut of wires affect negatively on the particle size in the solution or in any other possible way?

I use 15 volts and a 75 ohm resistor so I guess that the current must have raised to around 200mA when the wires got connected. When this happens does the anode continue liberating positively charge silver ions?

Thanks

Erik
