Solution

Let us look at them one by one.
$\begin{matrix} C h a n g e : & E f f e c t o n R e a c t i o n : I n c r e a s e d c u r r e n t & I n c r e a s e d r a t e o f e l e c t r o l y s i s I n c r e a s e d v o l t a g e & I n c r e a s e d c u r r e n t, a n d t h e r e f o r e i n c r e a s e d r a t e o f e l e c t r o l y s i s I n c r e a s e d c o n c e n t r a t i o n o f i o n s i n & I n c r e a s e d c u r r e n t, a n d t h e r e f o r e e l e c t r o l y t e & i n c r e a s e d r a t e o f e l e c t r o l y s i s I n c r e a s e d s u r f a c e a r e a o f e l e c t r o d e s & I n c r e a s e d c u r r e n t, a n d t h e r e f o r e i n c r e a s e d r a t e o f e l e c t r o l y s i s D e c r e a s e d d i s t a n c e b e t w e e n e l e c t r o d e s & I n c r e a s e d c u r r e n t, a n d t h e r e f o r e i n c r e a s e d r a t e o f e l e c t r o l y s i s I n e r t e l e c t r o d e t o a c t i v e e l e c t r o d e & E l e c t r o d e c a n o x i d i s e \end{matrix}$
Size of the electrode would increase the surface area. So that also affects electrolysis.
From the above table, it is clear how the variation of such factors affects the process of electrolysis.
We can easily say that the galvanometer doesn't affect the process, although it helps us measure the amount of current passed.
