Q5 - What is the process of Electrolysis?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Electrolysis, process by which electric current is passed through a substance to effect a chemical change. ... The process is carried out in an electrolytic cell, an apparatus consisting of positive and negative electrodes held apart and dipped into a solution containing positively and negatively charged ions.

Answer 2

$\underline\mathtt\red{ANSWER:}$

In the process of electrolysis, there is an interchange of ions and atoms due to the addition or removal of electrons from the external circuit. Basically, on passing current, cations move to the cathode, take electrons from the cathode (given by the supply source-battery), and is discharged into the neutral atom.
