Question

draw the digram of apparatus used in the electrolysis of water . lable the folling parts ​

Answer 1

ELECTROLYSIS OF WATER :

DIAGRAM - Refer the attached picture.

APPARATUS USED :

• Plastic Mug :  To  carry out the process of electrolysis of water.

• Rubber Stopper : To  connect Carbon Electrodes with the anode and cathode part of the battery.  

• Carbon Electrode : To carry out the current discharge in water for electrolysis.  

• Dilute Sulphuric Acid : For the release of H+ ions easily for electrolysis..

• Two Test  tubes :  To store the Oxygen and Hydrogen gases realised separately.

• 6 V Battery ( with Switch  ) : To discharge electric current in the set up of electrolysis.

• Water : Foundation  of Carrying out the process.

HOW TO DO :

⚫Take a plastic mug. Drill two holes at the end. Place the rubber stopper in these holes and insert carbon electrodes in both.

⚫Connect battery with these electrodes.

⚫Fill the plastic mug with water and invert them over the carbon electrodes and Switch on the current.

OBSERVATION / PURPOSE :

➡️ To determine the volume of Hydrogen and Oxygen gases released in  the test tubes.
