An __________ compound is formed of charged particles. When ____________ or in solution, the ions are
liquid by passing an electric current through it. Electrolysis involves redox reactions: ions lose electrons at
the positive electrode (__________) and gain electrons at the ________________ __________________
When electrolysing aqueous ionic compounds, the hydrogen and __________________ ions in water may
become involved in the reaction.If this happens, ________________ or oxygen may form. If an ionic
compound contains a metal that is more ________________ than hydrogen, electrolysis of a solution of the
compound produces hydrogen at the ________________ electrode. Electrolysis of copper sulfate (aq)
produces pure ____________ at the cathode, as copper is less reactive than ________________.
Electrolysis of sodium chloride (aq) produces hydrogen at the ______________, as sodium is more reactive
than ________________.
An ionic compound is formed of charged particles. When molten or in solution, the ions are able to
move freely and conduct electricity.Electrolysis is the decomposition of a liquid by passing an electric
current through it. Electrolysis involves redox reactions: ions lose electrons at the positive electrode
( anode ) and gain electrons at the negative electrode (cathode).In the electrolysis of molten
potassium chloride:
When electrolysing aqueous ionic compounds, the hydrogen and hydroxide ions in water may become
involved in the reaction.If this happens, hydrogen or oxygen may form. If an ionic compound contains a
metal that is more reactive than hydrogen, electrolysis of a solution of the compound produces hydrogen
at the negative electrode. Electrolysis of copper sulfate (aq) produces pure copper at the cathode, as
Electrolysis of sodium chloride (aq) produces hydrogen at the cathode , as sodium is more reactive than
hydrogen .
