Question

electrolysis of water​

Answer 1

Answer:

Electrolysis of water is the decomposition of water into oxygen and hydrogen gas due to the passage of an electric current. ... It is also called water splitting. It requires a minimum potential difference of 1.23 volts to split water.

Answer 2

Answer:

Electrolysis of water is the decomposition of water(H2O) into oxygen(O2) and hydrogen gas(H2) sir to an electric current being passed through the water.

An electrical power source is connected to two electrodes, or two plates( typically made from inst metal such as platinum, stainless steel or iridium) which are placed in the water. Hydrogen will. appear at the cathode(the negatively charged electrode, where electrons enter the water), and oxygen will appear at the anode (the positively charged electrode). Assuming ideal faradaic efficiency, the amount of hydrogen generated is twice the amount of Oxygen, and both are propositional to the electrical charge conducted by the solution. Above is the simple setup for electrolysis of water.
