hydrogen being -ve gets accumulated near anode and oxygen being+ve gets accumulated near cathode so the formula of water is H2O the ration of their masses is 2:1

plzz show the whole method of ratio by mass

During electrolysis of water,the ions in water are towards the anode and cathode
anode is that electrode where oxidation occurs and cathode reduction occurs
so when water is electrolysed the hydrogen ions are attracted towards the cathode
and oxygen towards anode
the volume of hydrogen is double the volume of oxygen because when one atom is broken into its constituents there is the production of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom so after they are converted into gases the volume of hydrogen is double the volume of oxygen
hope it helps
