hey ,gm ❤
here is Ur ans:-
[[[ELECTROLYSIS OF WATER]]]:- experiment
the decomposition of water into oxygen and hydrogen gas due to passage of electric current .the reaction has a standard potential of -1.23 V,(this deallys requires a potential different of 1.23 volts to spilt water)
[[Required Materials]]:-a glass of water,2 pencils which is shared both sides ,9-12 v DC adpater,some bits of wire,tape,a teaspoon -full of table salt.
after you connect everything , bubbles will form at the tip of pencils immediately .
O2 form at - positive electrode Named as anode.
H2 form at -electrode named as cathode the amount will twice for O2
pure water is an insulator and the electrolysis may proceed too slowly .some will say sulfuric acid or NaSo4 is better ,but those are not readily available outside labs.sulfuric acid is also dangerous to Handel .table salt will suffice for the purpose of the demonstration .using Nacl as an electronic result in some impurity in the form of chlorine gas at anode but tht should not be important purpose of the demo
